Pc Pete Redfern is having a rough couple of days. Nobody attends his police Q & A session on the Carcroft Estate, he's splattered with ‘water' bombs and then he's suspended for clipping a ‘lippy' boy around the ear. Then local lad Euan (one of the bombers) goes missing, but the Christmas Street cops don't get involved until late in the day – perhaps too late. Suspended Pc Pete Redfern's knowledge is sorely missed when the police try to find him.
