'Until I Kill You' Concludes with "Healing" & "Justice" for Delia Balmer

Until I Kill You’s first half left off with John Sweeney having fled the country and disappeared, though he’s still sending the cops postcards from random cities like Berlin, taunting them for letting him escape. But he’s not gone for long, returning to England under a false name and moving into a flat in London, where he’s already done in his next victim, Paula Edwards, who had the misfortune to pick the worst wrong door to knock on in the entire block.

Delia, meanwhile, is rebuilding her life. While John is doing in new women, she has also moved on and begins a relationship with David (Kevin Doyle). She has started a university course because she doesn’t want to return to nursing and is now studying to get a degree in massage and other therapies. David’s even bought her another bike. Everything seems to be going well until the cops show up one night on her doorstep, which is how she learns about John’s return to London and that he has been there for some time now, long enough to commit murder and be arrested.

Delia’s discovery John Sweeney has been living in London for two years undoes her completely, and she furiously explodes at DC Christine Webb, her family liaison officer. It’s even worse when she learns just how busy he’s been; Paula Edwards’ body was found in London’s Regent St. Canal. Now, despite failing to believe her or keep Sweeney in prison, the CPS services want to build a case against John for Paula’s murder using her testimony.
