Details
Deakin and Woods try to persuade a desperate mother – and wife of a seriously dangerous villain – to trust them when her young daughter is kidnapped as a result of her son's drug habit. As the mother stands in place of her son at the agreed meet, Deakin is suspicious when the kidnapper refuses to reveal the location of the victim even after the money has been handed over – although she is later found alive and well.
