Kevin Whately stars as Inspector Robbie Lewis, the sidekick to Morse in the internationally-successful and much-loved Inspector Morse.

In this series of intriguing murder mystery stories on TVM, Lewis has stepped out of Morse’s shadow and has a younger sidekick of his own, the ambitious Hathaway.

When a bright young female student is found murdered in a hotel room, detectives Lewis and Hathaway are drawn into a case driven by celebrity, ambition, scheming and dangerous sexual politics that bring Lewis face to face with his past.

The murdered girl, Jo Gilchrist, is one of three Oxford students who each possess an overwhelming ambition to succeed and have grouped together to achieve this, hatching ploys and schemes to further their ambitions.

But as Lewis and Hathaway discover, some of these alliances may not be what they seem.

Lewis is on tomorrow night on TVM at 8.40pm.
