Cracker

Whilst on their spree of violence, Tina and Sean murder a police officer. Criminal psychologist Fitz turns down DS Penhaligon's offer of a bed for the night, but is then approached by Tina who asks him to accompany her to her flat.

Criminal psychologist Fitz interrogates Tina and realises that her psychological problems stem from her relationship with her family and she finds expression through provoking Sean.

Fitz continues his uneasy relationship with the Manchester constabulary when the crime fighters are called in to find a missing boy. Extra pressure is piled on when an angry mob gathers at the police station demanding action and DCI Bilborough awaits the imminent birth of his child.

Criminal psychologist Fitz realises that Cassidy's confession is flawed, but he will not retract his statement. DS Bilborough needs to be seen to make an arrest and when he does, he incurs Fitz's wrath.
