S01E01 Alone
A two-year-old girl is abducted from her home and her dysfunctional family comes under immediate suspicion, but then a convicted child killer is also connected to the case.
Jack and Charlie are called out in the early hours after a 13-year-old girl is stabbed. The hospital reports back that she was eight weeks pregnant, shows signs of possible self-harming and had been previously sexually assaulted, while a number on her mobile phone belongs to the cab driver who drove her to hospital and claimed he did not know her.
Set in London, each episode is a self-contained story, starting with a news report, then following the team of three detectives as they investigate the circumstances the crime. The cases themselves are hard-hitting with contemporary themes, such as the search for a soldier with PTSD, a murder that has been made to look like an assisted suicide and the gang rape of a young teenager.
