A concentrated five-episode investigation into grief, institutional betrayal, and the corrosive search for truth after a catastrophic loss.

Dr Jim Swire tragically loses his daughter when Pan Am Flight 103 exploded over a small town on 21 December 1988. Travelling across continents and political divides, Swire embarks on a relentless journey that not only jeopardises his stability, family and life, but completely overturns his trust in the justice system. As the truth shifts under his feet, Swire's view of the world is left forever sullied.
