Dead Past

Diane Fallon's crime scene unit is facing one of its worst ever cases: an
explosion in a converted house has claimed many lives - from the students
attending a party in one of the upstairs apartments to the junkies running a
meth lab in the basement. Diane and her team will be sifting the evidence for
days, searching the scene for any slight clue to the identities of the
unrecognisable bodies. The incident has a devastating impact on the local
community - with most people knowing at least one of the victims. One of the
party survivors was even a member of Diane's staff - lucky enough to escape
with her life. Diane is determined to discover the root cause of the
explosion. But she must do so while avoiding the frenzy of media interest,
local government officials keen to assign blame and the political machinations
of a chief fire inspector who will stop at nothing to get Diane's job.
