Hailey Dean Mysteries

Finch, an investigator friend of Hailey Dean, discovers that his former marine comrade has been killed. The MP handling the case dismisses it as a random mugging, while the drama unfolds in this crime series starring Kellie Martin, and the investigation deepens.

Death on Duty is a crime‑drama programme presented as a single episode. It follows the conventions of a typical investigative series, focusing on a particular case that unfolds over its runtime. The show is built around the world of Hailey Dean, a former prosecutor turned private investigator, and the people who orbit her professional life. In this instalment, Finch – an investigator who works closely with Hailey – is drawn into a personal tragedy when his old marine friend is found dead. The death is initially dismissed by the Member of Parliament handling the inquiry, who labels it a random mugging. Finch, unwilling to accept that explanation, begins to question the circumstances surrounding the murder, setting the stage for a deeper look at the case. The episode stars Kellie Martin, who reprises her role as Hailey Dean, anchoring the narrative with her investigative instincts. The storyline centres on the clash between Finch’s determination to uncover the truth and the MP’s quick dismissal of the incident, highlighting the tension that often arises when official narratives clash with personal convictions. This dynamic drives the episode’s tension, as the characters navigate the complexities of a seemingly ordinary crime that may hide more than meets the eye.
