After a robbery at a local petrol station blood is found; this wouldn't usually be anything for UCOS to interest themselves with but it matched that of Georgia Wright, a girl who went missing and was assumed to have been murdered in Scotland nine years previously. Former Strathclyde detective Steve McAndrew comes down to assist the team with the investigation as it was originally his case and he never believed that she was really dead. One might think that if she is alive then it is just another runaway and as she is an adult now there is no case to investigate but McAndrew believes there is more to it than that
and he is right; she was last seen with 'Dave the Roadie' and when he is investigated they find a trail of false identities tied to a number of women; all of whom he told lies to get them to believe he was actually working for MI6 and they were in danger. He is very persuasive and unless they can find Georgia they won't be able to prove anything.
After losing Jack in the first episode of the series it looks as if they may have found a replacement in McAndrew; I think he'd make a decent addition to the team as he is quite different to the others and most importantly he is nothing like Jack so won't just be Jack Mk II. Denis Lawson does a good job as McAndrew. While this case might not involve a murder case the villain of the story is particularly unpleasant; Daniel Ryan does a great job as Barry Flint; a truly despicable character who lies to women to get what he wants and can't see that there is anything wrong with it.
