The season finale of Murder in a Small Town picks up the thread of the unsolved murder of the woman posed in the woods by delving into the same suspects suggested the previous week. The suspicious behavior of Cassandra’s (Kristin Kreuk) friend from out of town Roger (Lucas Bryant) makes him the leading suspect, but stumbling into a connection between the art on display in the gallery and previous victims pushes Karl’s (Rossif Sutherland)  focus to the high school art teacher (Noah Reid) whose behavior towards Devon (Alisha Newton) also takes a dangerous turn leading to a standoff between the chief and the killer.

After a couple of weeks with no murders within the town, “Family Concerns” offers two with the unrelated murders of two women found in the woods. The explanation of one turns out to be obvious enough with Karl (Rossif Sutherland) uncovering an affair and an unfortunate escalation of a disagreement between the victim and his lover’s daughter (Natalie Malaika) which left the woman dead. Despite the father’s (Ryan Allen) attempts to take the fall, after failing to pin the crime on the murderer of the earlier victim, the truth is far too easy for Karl to see once the facts emerge.

“The Madness Method” offers a twisty tale of a murder’s psychiatrist (Paula Patton) warning the department he’s (Keenan Tracey) on his way to Gibsons. Sensing something off about her story, and the woman herself, Karl (Rossif Sutherland) has his department dig into her background while they prepare for the killer’s arrival. This leaves the department stretched thin when he arrives, but it also gives Karl the necessary information to know who is actually behind the attacks and prevent any more loss of life (even when he storms the department).

Murder in a Small Town - A Touch of Panic

Marking the first episode of the series not to include a murder, “A Touch of Panic” does offer more obstacles for the burgeoning romance between Karl (Rossif Sutherland) and Cassandra (Kristin Kreuk), but not in the awkwardness between Cassandra and Karl’s daughter Holly (Dakota Guppy) but in a much more dangerous face from Karl’s past. Devon Sawa guest-stars as a dying man recently released from prison who blames Karl for everything wrong with his life leading him to target the sheriff’s loved ones. Subverting expectations, showing us someone following Holly and her friend (Alisha Newton) earlier in the episode, it turns out Cassandra was an easier mark leading to her kidnapping.

Murder in a Small Town - Prized Possessions

“Prized Possessions” provides an interesting twist as Karl Alberg (Rossif Sutherland) investigates the disappearance, and apparent murder, of Cassandra’s (Kristin Kreuk) high-strung friend Emma (Erica Durance). Given that we seen Emma shoot a gun at her husband Charlie (Toby Levins) in the opening tease it’s not hard for us to jump to conclusions as to what occurred suggesting she’s killed her husband and waited to set up a perfect alibi for herself. Picking up on the friction in the marriage, Karl jumps to a similar conclusion. However, the truth turns out to be more complicated.
