Vera S03E02 - Poster Child

When respected surgeon, Dan Marsden, is shot dead days before his retirement and his teen daughters, Mira and Karen, are abducted, DCI Stanhope and the team face a race against time to track down the killer and save the sisters. Orphaned by a missile attack in Baghdad, a young girl being pulled from the rubble of her building became an iconic image of the Iraq conflict. Brought to Britain for treatment, little Mira was adopted by Dan and his dutiful wife, Laura, under the watchful eye of a family friend. Joined by new addition, DC Barry Kelman, it's not long before the case takes a violent and unexpected turn striking at the heart of Vera and her team.
