    A group of anarchists kidnap the grandchildren of millionaire media mogul Clayton Waddington, but the family is adamant that the police should not be involved, thus avoiding a public scandal for their business. Liam and Garth are brought in under the guise of insurance company ransom negotiators and Kelly goes undercover living on the streets in an attempt to trace a homeless girl who has been linked to the scene of the abduction. Waddington agrees to the ransom demand, but tries to get the upper hand on the criminals by marking the cash.

    Police Chief DI Holland challenges gangster Charlie Pearce in order to regain control of a tough area of the city, but is shot dead on his way back from a public meeting with the area's residents. Pearce is, of course, the chief suspect. Liam, Garth and Kelly set themselves up as an operation selling expensive fake watches and it's not long before Pearce and his heavies call round for their first 'insurance' payment. Liam is embraced into Charlie Pearce's fold when, through a stroke of good fortune, he saves Pearce's life. Unfortunately Garth's unresolved issues with his brother Chris land him in deep trouble when Chris tracks him down and blows his cover. Liam's nerve is tested to the limit as he faces the choice of killing his partner Garth to prove his allegiance to Pearce, or coming clean and risking being killed himself.
