Following the success of the first two series of Above Suspicion, ITV1 has commissioned Lynda La Plante to write a third instalment.

Above Suspicion: Deadly Intent is adapted by Lynda La Plante from her successful fourth novel about rookie detective, Anna Travis. Produced by La Plante Productions for ITV1, filming will commence at various locations around London this summer and can be seen on TV in 2011.

DI Anna Travis is back following her promotion and reunited with DCS James Langton and DCI Mike Lewis, who will be heading up his first murder case.

Following a fatal shooting in a notorious drug dealer’s squat, the murder team quickly identify the victim as Frank Brandon - an ex-police officer from the drug squad, and friend of James Langton.  Travis and the team begin the task of trying to connect the presence of their ex-colleague with such desperate and squalid surroundings.

After further investigation Travis begins to uncover suspicious links between Brandon and the notorious drug-trafficker, Alexander Fitzpatrick, one of the most wanted men in the Western world.  Operating under numerous aliases, he has eluded arrest for 20 years and there have been no sightings of him... until now.

Lynda La Plante says: "Travis and Langton are back to investigate the death of a former colleague and friend of Langton’s in dreadful circumstances.  It is very exciting that Kelly and Ciaran are reunited to bring both characters back for a third season. I hope the audience continues to enjoy my latest adaptation."

Director of ITV Drama Commissioning Laura Mackie says: “I am delighted to be working with La Plante Productions on another run of Above Suspicion which has established itself as a strong returning franchise for ITV1."
