Murder Investigation Team
The team investigates the death of a 19-year-old girl whose body is found encased in concrete at a building site. The girl had disappeared three years previously and the case had been the subject of a great deal of publicity. They initially focus on Paul Wainwright, a heavy drinker with a history of violence and who was a regular at the pub run by the dead girl's parents. He was at the pub the night she disappeared but drank so much he blacked out and has no recollection whatsoever of events. When they find forensic evidence in his car linking him to the dead girl, most of the team think they've solved it, but DI Vivien Friend isn't so sure.
