Murder
59 mins
In Hampshire, police detectives and technicians try to solve the case of a woman who was burned and dragged to another site. Unlike Holywoodian CSI adventures, real forensics are exhausting work. Despite the bleak prospects for success with so few to work on, tiny remainders and witness reports concerning a suspicious car, the team ultimately does well enough to transfer its findings to the prosecutor.
