The young attractive Tracey might provide the answer. She is convinced that the vicar’s new heart belonged to her recently deceased lover Melvin, a fairground “wall of death” rider. Could it be that Paul has taken on Melvin’s personality traits as well as his heart? That again. perhaps he’s just suffering from the side of his medication? Frank, ever the cantankerous septic, is delighted by vicar’s fall from grace, while June does her best to rein in his detective work.
