Sinopsis

15-year-old Tracy Manning reappears after a week missing, claiming abduction and sexual abuse. Tasked with investigating, DI Wright, a jaded detective nearing retirement, is immediately sceptical, finding her story implausible. His new partner, DS Abigail Field, is initially shocked by his cynicism, believing Tracy is a victim. As they dig into the unsettling case, they uncover a complex web of denials and hidden relationships. Tracy's eventual murder deepens the mystery, forcing the detectives to re-evaluate her original disappearance and the validity of her claims. Amidst the investigation, DI Wright grapples with his own philosophical views on morality and justice, where "evil is banal" and "the truth" is elusive, while Abigail confronts her own prejudices and beliefs. "No Conviction" explores the struggles of an unloved teenager, and the realities of a justice system where accountability is often unattainable.
