Suddenly she's chasing down a car of dangerous criminals prepared to take out anyone who stands in their way. Jess's targets escape, but she knows this is only the beginning. What started with the arrest of a thief escalates into a quest to expose a ruthless organised crime network operating beneath the surface of the idyllic Ribble Valley. Is an arch-rival of Jess's nemesis, local crime boss Mags Horsefield, finally ready to make his move?
