For The Greater Good

Character Wins Over Case

&quot;For The Greater Good&quot; closes out the third season of The Chelsea Detective with a polished, if slightly underwhelming, mystery. 6.5/10

When a climate scientist is found deceased, the investigation expertly navigates the ethical divide between the wealthy elite and those who live closer to the street. The case initially promises high-stakes intrigue, focusing on a potentially controversial conference speech and corporate secrets.

While the plot remains engaging, the revelation of the culprit and their motive feels somewhat telegraphed, lacking the usual final sting we&apos;ve come to expect from DI Max Arnold&apos;s cases.

However, the episode shines as a character finale. It draws a significant line under Max&apos;s personal journey, bringing an emotional and decisive close to his long-running storyline with his estranged wife, Astrid. The focus on the personal lives of the team, including a powerful moment for Ashley Wilton, elevates the episode beyond the confines of its predictable plot.

It&apos;s a satisfying character conclusion, even if it falls short as a classic whodunit cliffhanger.
