Simon and Conrad are near Slough, and head off to assist a bus driver under attack nearby, with a robbery in progress. They arrive with superb timing and manage to snaffle the thief as he attempts to flee, all without disturbing Mr Hills’s shades! The suspect complains that he hasn’t done anything wrong – though the shaken bus driver says otherwise. The bus has a wide range of smashed windows and mirrors but, fortunately, no one has been hurt. Though the suspect doesn’t take at all kindly to being taken to the nick… Helen is in Maidenhead and is called to the scene of a road crash in case Bonnie is needed to chase down any fleeing drivers.

After wresting several lighters away from her, Helen withdraws to allow her to be cut out of her wrecked car. Obviously assuming that refusing to provide any specimen for testing will get her out of a drink drive charge – she is, happily, proved wrong as refusal carries exactly the same penalty! In Gerrards Cross – a bunch of Proactives, led by JK, are helping a range of officers to bust a whopper outdoor cannabis farm and factory.

There is no doubt whatsoever what is being grown on the site, though it’s very well hidden, despite being in such a crowded area of the country. It’s the biggest such plantation JK has ever seen! Anna McShane and Tony ‘Griff’ Griffiths are in Aylesbury, where the dealer from the previous drugs bust is being held in temporary accommodation – except he’s escaped from the portakabin and
