DC Stevie Moss has proven she's an excellent copper time and time again with the Sun Hill team; especially with (newly promoted) Insp Smith. Now, when a seemingly all round nice guy is arrested for bottling an innocent man Stevie's gut feeling is the assault was totally out of character for the perpetrator, Joel Fuller.
Ignoring Smithy's guidance that she's not a social worker, Stevie pursues her itching curiosity into what is causing Joel's latest one-man crime wave. She feels bad just bailing and releasing Joel from the station when it’s obvious he's troubled.
In this investigation, Stevie puts down the hard shield of force and pursues the softer and compassionate side of policing only to be proved it was a mistake.
