Northern Explosion
While on a brief layover in a small Canadian mining town, Jessica finds herself pulled into an investigation when an explosion at a mine leaves an executive and an employee of the mining company dead and the prime suspect is a First Nations activist who was accused of stealing some dynamite the night before. Working with the Territory's Tribal lawyer and a RCMP cop, the trio set out to prove the young man's innocence.
A well meaning episode which is a little low key, yet still having ingredients of a decent MSW. The motive behind the murders adds a tragic touch. Well acted by all. Jessica doesn't do much questioning, she's more of an observer and observing helps her nab the killer of two unsavoury victims.
