The main storyline about the death of the wife of one of three brothers with axes to grind is good enough, but the secondary storyline is even better

Khandi Alexander shines in this episode, doing her \'this is what comes of drink driving\' class for young drinkers. She has such presence and her character is totally believable (Caruso take notes!)

The main storyline is the usual twist and turn, did he/didn\'t he look at the death of a woman whose husband survived the carjack intact, whereas she ended up on rocks with a bullet in her head. It\'s not a particularly strong story, but has enough plot to keep you watching.

Alexx hires a young drink driver from her class to help in the morgue processing bodies. When a flask of alcohol goes missing from one of the corpses, she makes an obvious deduction. Again, though, things are not as they seem, and the very final act, as Alexx reveals to another class a very dead reason not to drink and drive, the power of KA\'s acting really comes across, as does the power of the writers.moreless
