This episode follows Northumbria Police as they tackle evolving modern crimes in an ever-changing world, including child trafficking and the downloading of indecent images of children, and the effect investigating these cases has on the officers themselves - from seasoned detectives to new response officers.

Long-serving detective Julie Milne has worked for Northumbria Police for 23 years. It鈥檚 a different world to when she joined and had to wear a skirt and carry a 'lady鈥檚' truncheon. She now works in the Complex Cases Unit, investigating some of the most challenging cases across the force. As Julie arrests a suspect in a historic case of child trafficking, she works with the specialist marines search team to identify evidence that corroborates the harrowing testimony of the victims.

Meanwhile, reports have come in of a man seen with a gun at a college, and it is tactical commander Andy Huddleston鈥檚 job to arrest the suspect and recover the firearm. Andy orders the Firearm Support Unit to carry out a dawn raid to minimise the risk to the public.

Elsewhere, 21-year-old Rosie, who originally trained to become an accountant before following both her parents into the police, is seeing first-hand the reality of responding to 999 calls on the streets, including the rising number of mental health related calls. Qualified for just a month, she deals with a caller with severe mental health issues and the shaken victim of a drive-by shooting.

Elsewhere in the force, detectives in the rural north are playing a cat-and-mouse game with men suspected of stealing a quad bike from a remote farm.
