Personal life and background
Emma graduated from University. From a middle class background, she is the daughter of DCI Frank Keane from the Department of Professional Standards, but is determined to prove that she earned her position in the police force on merit rather than nepotism. Emma came across as smart and fun-loving.
After being involved in an incident, where a fellow police officer was killed, Emma was convinced that Inspector Gold was bullying her. She made a formal complaint about her, it was not until they worked together on a rape case that she realised the Inspector was not really bullying her and tries to withdraw the complaint. Unfortunately, she goes to see the Superintendent and he tells her his hands are tied on the matter but the complaint was later withdrawn.
Marriage and relationships
While dating CPS solicitor Matt Hinckley, Emma had an affair with Will Fletcher, Emma later agreed to marry Matt out of guilt for cheating on him with Will, however the night before her wedding she opened up to Matt and tells him about the brief affair.
Matt gets his friends to beat up Will but during the course of the next day Will gives Matt a well deserved punch and they both drop the charges against the other. Emma and Matt get married and both go back at work after their honeymoon. Shortly after the wedding, Matt reveals that he wants to start a family with Emma fairly soon but she does not feel ready.
Later, when Emma finds out that Matt lied to her about his ex-girlfriend being dead, she confronts him with evidence that she is still alive. The two have an argument and Matt attempts to strangle her. She hits him in the head with a Vodka bottle, which is just within reach.

Training

'Frontline'
Emma was killed when she attempted to evacuate a building she suspected was threatened by a terrorist attack. In the absence of her sergeant, Callum Stone, Emma was forced to attempt the evacuation alone, until a bomb went off with Emma still inside. When Stone arrived, he attempted frantically to revive the PC, but to no avail although that has not been proven. Stone is racked with guilt at Emma's death, and that he may have been able to do something about it had he been where he should have.
