Criminal Intentions: Season One, Episode Nine: A Single Bright Candle's Flame

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Detective Malcolm Khalaji is at a loss.

For the second time in his life, he wasn't there when his lover needed him. And with Seong-Jae Yoon on leave pending an internal investigation, Malcolm doesn't know what to do with a shattered partner and boyfriend who's retreated from him into a dark and broken place. This time he's determined to be there no matter what Seong-Jae needs, even if it means taking time off from the pressures of their job to hold Seong-Jae through every moment of trauma, of guilt, of self-recrimination.

Until a frantic phone call from Seong-Jae's parents destroys any hope of peace. Because Seong-Jae's younger sister is missing—and there's only one place she would go.

Yet even if the desperate search breaks Seong-Jae's numbness, it's the warmth of family that brings him back from a black and dangerous edge—and shows Malcolm a side to Seong-Jae he never could have imagined. If each player in this game is a chess piece, then none other than Edmund Bishop is a pawn, sacrificed to save his queen. Yet is Lillienne Wellington really the one pulling the strings?

Or is someone else trying to eliminate Bishop for their own dire ends?

Contains mature themes.
