A young woman, Marina sets fire to an abandoned car in a street and takes photographs of it as it burns.

Although not officially a cold case, Boyd is intrigued and reluctantly agrees to investigate. Frankie runs forensic tests on Marina's father's car and proves that he was still alive after the crash and could have escaped.
