The death of a seemingly innocent family man leads Ronnie and Joe to go on the hunt for the murderer, but they soon discover that the accused is Eddie Stewart, just so happens to be former DI Natalie Chandler's father. No one can understand why Eddie would commit murder, least of all Natalie who argues with a sympathetic Jake when she confronts him over the charge against her father. Natalie wastes no time in getting Ronnie to go above and beyond to help her find the real killer, even if that means getting him into trouble with a frustrated DI Leyton.

A bloody hotel room and a stolen credit card lead Ronnie and Joe to Charles Hutton, a member of the wealthy upper-class who dotes on his wife Camille, and daughter, Georgia. Without a body it's difficult to ascertain the crime, but before long, Ronnie and Joe have enough evidence to suggest that Georgia gave birth in the hotel room – but where is the baby? Georgia and her boyfriend are difficult enough for the CPS to prosecute but to make matters worse the defence counsel turns out to be an old nemesis of Jake's, Maitland Cosby. But as the evidence against the young couple stacks up, how far will Georgia's father go to protect her future?
