rdf:langString A housekeeper arrives to find her employers dead, Brooks and Devlin begin an investigation into the murder of David and Elaine Lerner, who had only moved into the house six months ago, and had been doing it up as their dream home for when they retired. When they struggle to find a motive for the killing, their line of investigation soon turns to the previous owners of the house, ex-husband and wife Camilla Mallon and Lucas Boyd after discovering that they were part of a major hedge fund scam several years back. When CCTV footage puts Boyd in the area at the time of the killing, they discover that his fingerprints match the one found in Elaine's blood. Boyd, drunk at the wheel of his car, crashed the vehicle while turning a corner, banging his head, and mistakenly returned his old house – and brutally stabbed the Lerners. Thorne and Phillips press for a murder charge, while faced with Jake’s old mentor Margaret Rumsfield , who argues that the accused should face only manslaughter charges.

rdf:langString Ronnie and Sam investigate when crime scene examiner Kelly Mahon is found stabbed to death in her flat. All the lines of inquiry begin to lead to a dead end, until her colleague, Lucy Kennard, makes a claim that she was attacked outside her flat by an angered cabbie. The cabbie is soon found to have a connection to Kelly, and after forensic evidence places Kelly's blood on his trainers, Ronnie believes they have the right man. However, as things seem to appear cut and dried, Sam finds himself entangled in a sexual relationship with Lucy. Whilst investigating the contents of Kelly's stolen handbag, they discover that at the time of the stabbing, she was in possession of an Ann Summers gift card worth £100. Sam soon discovers that the card had been activated once in the last month to buy a size 10 red nightie, however, no trace of a nightie is found at Kelly's flat. As their relationship grows deeper, Sam is startled and horrified to discover the nightie in Lucy's bathroom. Jake and Alesha soon discover that Lucy may well have been Kelly's killer – and that the forensic evidence found on the cabbie may have been placed there by Kelly's friends to deliberately implicate him. And as a string of men who have had money extorted from them by Lucy come to light, Jake and Alesha believe they have enough evidence to prosecute. However, with Sam's sexual involvement hanging over their shoulders, the case threatens to collapse after Lucy accuses the judge of the trial of bribing her with release in return for sexual activities.

rdf:langString DS Sam Casey is given the job of investigating Matt Devlin's death, but Ronnie, distraught about the loss of his best friend and partner, begins to let his emotions interfere with the investigation. Casey immediately suspects one of Mark Ellis' accomplices. Ellis, however, denies all involvement and the case leads to a teenager, Jamaal Clarkson, whose brother Kieran was murdered in 2003 after being shot in the head. The police covered up the case and signed it off as a suicide, but Jamaal and his family believe they had been subjected to institutional racism. Jamaal admits to Ronnie that he knew that Mark Ellis was Kieran's killer and that he went to the court to shoot Ellis, but was too late, and instead shot Matt as an act of revenge against the police. Jake and Alesha must find a way of prosecuting Jamaal for murder.

rdf:langString Ronnie and Sam are called out to the scene of a man found dead in his car. They immediately discover that he was not alone, and soon manage to track down his female friend. While on the search for a "Harry Hill" lookalike who was seen at the scene of the crime, they are distracted when they are called to the scene of a man who has hit his brother over the head during a violent row, after his brother attacked him. As they interview a suspect in the case of the dead man, they discover that the suspect in question, Roland Hextor, had apparently been spotted following one of the man's female colleagues just weeks earlier. To make matters worse, in interview, he refuses to provide any information as to where he was on the night in question. Just as they are about to charge Hextor, they discover the weapon used to kill the victim does not match a weapon found in Hextor's possession, leaving their case with no leads. With hours of CCTV to trawl through, the detectives soon become worklogged when the case of the man who fought with his brother turns into a murder charge. With two cases to deal with, a further spanner is thrown into the works when a defendant on trial accuses Sam of intimidating him during interview.

rdf:langString An armed robbery at a fast food restaurant leads Ronnie and Sam to Frank Donovan, a convicted criminal who is believed to be the accomplice in the robbery. Donovan reveals that he and his former cellmate, Jamie Harper, robbed the joint after they ran into a gambling debt – and that after their getaway car broke down, in the midst of Harper shooting an innocent bystander, kidnapped an innocent man, Michael Coombs, and ordered him to drive them away. Coombs, a father of two who suffers from severe asthma, is nowhere to be found – and Donovan insists that for information on his whereabouts he must be given immunity against being prosecuted for the murder of the innocent bystander, and instead be tried for manslaughter. Jake and Alesha agree to the deal, however, Donovan's information leads to Coombs' corpse, and thus, they realize they have been duped, as Donovan would have known Coombs was already dead. In court, Jake attempts to overturn the immunity agreement, which comes up against some scrutiny from Donovan's brief, Miriam Pescatore . However, the case soon swings in his favour when Donovan's accomplice Jamie Harper is found dead and buried in the woodlands. Jake agrees to let the immunity agreement stand, but thus, pleads that separate to the charge of manslaughter, Donovan should be tried for Harper's death as it were a separate incident.

rdf:langString When Kayla Stark reports that her two-year-old son, Ryan, has been taken from a high-street merry go round, Brooks and Devlin suspect that her ex-boyfriend, who is also the child's father, may be responsible. However, upon examination of the CCTV footage, the pair discover that the child was never on the merry-go-round, and that the buggy Kayla was pushing at the time was empty. Suspicion then turns to Kayla's current partner, and when the boy is found dead in the airing cupboard at his flat, Brooks and Devlin believe they have their man. However, without any evidence proving whether Kayla or her boyfriend killed Ryan, Thorne and Phillips must decide which guilty party to prosecute.

rdf:langString While investigating the shooting of two innocent bystanders in a local nightclub, Brooks and Devlin's night goes from bad to worse when they realize have a possible hostage situation in their hands. Then they are called to a third shooting of a local off-licence attendant by a pair of burglars wearing rubber face masks. When a fourth body is found – the owner of the nightclub – suspicion falls on a mentally unstable Iraq War veteran Andy Bishop – and when the team finally catch up with Andy, things take a terrible turn when he is shot by his girlfriend. When the case comes to trial, the court has to decide: Was she a terrified victim who killed her abuser, or a willing participant in the crimes?

rdf:langString Mother-of-one Lia Brown is found shot in her bed, suspicion immediately falls on to her boyfriend, who struggles with MS and has to take medicinal cannabis to help his condition. However, when it is discovered that the bullet was fired from over 100 metres away, Kaden Blake, the thirteen-year-old son of a known addict, comes into the firing line. He claims that he was told to kill his friend Chase Wade, and that when he first fired the gun, he missed Chase and the bullet flew through the air and into Lia's flat, killing her. When it is discovered he was under the instructions of Mark Ellis, a long time criminal and well-known drug dealer, who the police have previously failed to bring to justice, Jake and Alesha offer Kaden a reduced sentence in order to bring Ellis to justice. It soon transpires that Kaden's mother, who is addicted to crack, sold her son to Ellis in exchange for free drugs, and that Ellis had been torturing the boy and making him run illegal errands. Ellis is soon taken to court and found guilty of illegal imprisonment, possession of class A drugs and GBH. Kaden is also given a sentence in a young offender's institution, but after being released from court, he finds himself in the firing line of an armed man driving a 4x4. Devlin manages to spot the gunman, and in an attempt to save Kaden, takes a bullet for him.

rdf:langString A Czech Escort Katerina Cizik is found stabbed to death in her hotel room, Brooks and Devlin immediately suspect a case of blackmail, when £4,000 and a log of payments are found in the woman's bedside table. Suspicion falls on the hotel porter, who was conveniently out of the building at the time – but a secret relationship between a respected male practitioner and the escort comes to light, and soon leads Thorne and Phillips to believe that the jealous wife of the practitioner is prepared to frame her husband, as his meetings with the escort have led to her son being born brain-damaged, caused by an STD which the husband contracted from the escort, and in turn gave to his wife.

rdf:langString Ronnie and Sam become concerned when they are alerted to a video of a teenage girl being raped and shot which has been circulating virally for three weeks. They discover that the victim, Anna Rousso, believed that she was going to a party to hang out with some of her friends, but on arrival, found three boys waiting to have sex with her. They discover that Anna's crush, Danny, was a witness to the incident and made a 999 call from a nearby phonebox. They are soon able to link the rape to three local youths using Danny's evidence, DNA and the video footage. However, when the case reaches court, the youths' brief manages to get the video footage excluded, leaving Alesha with no ground to fall back on. However, during a conversation with Danny, she lets slip that all she would need is a guilty plea to convict all three defendants – and when in the witness box, Danny makes a life-changing decision which could throw the decision in Alesha's favour.
