Maggie and Jackie help a woman to track down her long-lost daughter, who she gave up for adoption 20 years ago. But their search soon coincides with Mike's investigation into a spate of hotel room burglaries. Meanwhile, the Inland Revenue return to Aidensfield to, once again, hound Greengrass. He is more concerned with organising a lurcher competition, only to create further problems for himself when Ventress and Blaketon take an interest in his shady new business partner, whilst Craddock requires the help of a solicitor when his wife files for a divorce.
