Rose and Maloney

After being disgraced, investigator Rose Linden is assigned under administrative manager Marion Maloney at the Criminal Justice Review Agency (CJRA). Despite being told to resume light duties only, Rose ignores orders and soon drags Maloney into a case of injustice, involving a mother's plea that her son is not guilty of the rape and murder of his daughter.

As the investigation deepens, Rose is forced to battle her own demons as she's forced to cope with the knowledge that she has recently freed a man who is actually guilty of the crime for which he was sentenced. Will this impair her judgement, or will Maloney manage to steer the investigation back on course?

Rose receives an appeal from Daniel Berrington, who was found guilty of murdering retired army officer Arthur Towns when he was 10 years old. Now 18 and eligible for parole, Berrington risks his chances of freedom by claiming his innocence. Rose once again drags Maloney into the case, putting their careers on the line.

Berrington escapes from custody, presenting Rose with a difficult dilemma: hand him over to the authorities and save her job or risk the CRJA's future by taking on the case. It's not long before Rose's suspicions are put to the test as the Berrington brothers come face to face, but the truth takes everyone by surprise.

When the Government orders that cases where the defendants were convicted of infanticide due to evidence from expert witnesses may be reviewed, Rose and Maloney dig up Katie Phelan, convicted of killing a baby in her care on the evidence of Dr Diane Marquis. The duo learn that the child's parents also had another who died, and they believe that they have a case of cot death, until the family doctor drops a bombshell.

Rose and Maloney reinvestigate convicted rapist Karl Callaghan, but the case further complicates when his driving licence is found next to a corpse. Later, there appear to be implications of drug running and human trafficking.

An investigation is reopened into the case of a woman sentenced for the murder of her lover's wife and teenage daughter years ago. Rose and Maloney must review her troubled past in order to correct the miscarriage of justice.

Rose and Maloney reinvestigate the case of a wealthy property developer convicted of murdering his father, sister and business partner on a remote farm. They soon realise that people with power can buy almost anything, but that even the rich don't always escape.
