Detective Sergeant Logan McRae has has been reassigned to D.I. Steels “screw-up Squad” after a sting operation gone wrong and a police officer got hurt badly. Now he must prove that he isn't a screw-up so that he can go back to work with his old group instead of D.I. Steels. But in Aberdeen crime never sleeps and soon he is working on different cases; arson, prostitutes getting murdered and a dead dog in a suitcase.
