β¦ Synopsis
An abandoned baby...
A kidnapped five-year-old...
A dead police officer...
And Detective Sergeant Bev Morriss thinks she's having a hard time! Bev doesn't do fragile and vulnerable, and struggling to cope with the aftermath of a vicious attack, she is desperate not to reveal the lurking self-doubt. But her lover has decided it's time to move on and the guv is losing patience. And as for her new partner--think empathy of a house brick. But she can scarcely trust her own judgement, so what's left to rely on? Just when things can't get any worse, the death threat arrives. And the ransom note. And hard doesn't begin to cover it.
