Synopsis:

Young Carrie's mother has been murdered and she may have seen the killer. From the moment she discovers her mother's body, her need to uncover the truth becomes an obsession, bringing her closer to the detective in charge. But what happens when those you trust have the most to hide - and may be those from whom you have the most to fear? It's a knife edge thriller of revenge, redemption and rough justice; a telling tale of murder seen through the eyes of a child; and Hain, the detective in charge of the investigation - a man who always seems to be on the wrong side of the evidence. What brings them together and tears them apart can be found in Murderland.

Season 1
Season 1, Episode 1: Carrie's Story
Original Air Date-19 October 2009
As a child Carol, known as Carrie, came home from a party to find her mother Sally, a prostitute, had been murdered. She saw a shadow, possibly that of the killer, on the wall and, whilst phoning the police, observed a man with a blood-stained hand.She was keen to help D.I. Hain in his investigation, though child psychiatrist Dr. Maitland clashed with Hain, accusing him of pushing Carrie too far. The crime went unsolved and, fifteen years later, Carol, about to get married, goes to visit Hain.
Season 1, Episode 2: Hain's Story
Original Air Date-26 October 2009
Hain explains to Carol his own position fifteen years earlier and how he was dropped from the case - and even briefly in the frame - because he was a client of Sally, whom he loved. He used Cleo's,the massage parlour where Sally worked, to gain information from other working girls like Rachel and suspected another policeman, Oliver, of having shady dealings with Tony Phillips, the man behind Cleo's, though Oliver explained he was working under cover, to expose fraud. Hain was subsequently given early retirement, though he tells Carol that he has recently seen Whittaker, a man who wanted to photograph her when she was a child and was himself, for a while, a murder suspect. She decides to go under cover herself at the massage parlour.
Season 1, Episode 3: Carol's Story
Original Air Date-2 November 2009
Hain and Carol continue to dig into the past, despite death threats when a hearse is sent to Hain's house. Carol registers at the massage parlour as Angel and forces Whittaker, a regular client, to admit he took photographs for a paedophile ring. She tracks down another victim, Andrew, who identifies Rachel as a procuress for the group. Rachel names Phillips and Oliver as its ring-leaders and admits she saw the murderer of Sally but was forced to keep quiet as Carol was being threatened if she spoke out. The killer is eventually arrested but at a price.
