Summary: Amelia identifies one of Jane Shilliday's killers – a detective on the drugs squad. DCI Peter MacKinnon, better known as Mac (Rod Hallett), heads up the successful drugs squad. Jim (Douglas Henshall) becomes increasingly suspicious that there is corruption on a large scale in the squad and that the murder of the policewoman, Jane Shilliday, who was romantically involved with drugs squad copper Rocky (Richie Campbell), is connected.

Jim's position on Shilliday's murder investigation becomes increasingly compromised as his own team on the murder squad close in on the very witness he is trying to protect: Amelia (Genevieve Barr).

Amelia offers to lipread surveillance DVDs for Jim. She lipreads a conversation between Rocky and a recently-murdered informant – revealing that the drugs squad are on the take.

With the evidence stacking up against the drugs squad, it is only a matter of time before Jim's colleagues find out who the unknown key witness to the murder is.
