Summary

Subject: On the morning of December 4th 1984, municipal workers in Bhopal, India, were clearing some 4,000 dead bodies and thousands of animal carcasses from the streets following the world's worst industrial accident. The toxic cloud that caused the massive death toll formed when water poured into a tank of improperly stored methyl isocyanate (MIC). It doesn't look dangerous. And you can't smell it until it's too late. You can only hope it's not sitting around anywhere near you . . . In the Scottish city of Dundee, life and all its complications are proceeding much the same as usual. The recklessly brilliant DI Donna Davenport, struggling to hide her bi-polarity from police colleagues and get over the break-up with her partner Libby, has been suspended from duty for a fiery and inappropriate outburst to the press.
