Brian Cox stars as McLevy with Siobhán Redmond as Jean Brash and Michael Perceval-Maxwell as Mulholland in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation.
Inspired by the real-life memoirs of a Victorian Inspector in Scotland, James McLevy prowls the dark streets of 1860s Edinburgh bringing criminals to justice, with the assistance of Constable Mulholland.
In 'The Trophy Club', McLevy is blocked at every turn in his efforts to solve the cruel murder of a young prostitute. Convinced that the killer is from the highest level of Edinburgh society, he unwisely decides to bend the rules - with bitter consequences.
