The second entry in the popular "Prime Suspect" series, featuring Helen Mirren as Detective Chief Inspector Jane Tennison. Here, Tennison ventures into a primarily black neighborhood in order to solve the murder of a young woman whose body was found buried in a backyard. As usual, however, her work is complicated by factors unrelated to the case, namely the police department's concerns about its relationship with an already suspicious community. And when tragedy befalls a suspect who proves to be innocent, an already tense situation worsens. If all that weren't bad enough, Tennison also has to put up with a new partner... who just happens to be her former lover. (official distributor synopsis)
