- After being released from prison Ralph Paxton asks Gerry to help solve the mystery of his grandson Jake's death. Ralph and his then partner Wayne Pelham staged a robbery but the valuable stash of jewels they found went subsequently missing. Paxton is certain that Pelham killed the boy for those jewels. UCOS tracks down Pelham, now a legitimate and apparently successful businessman, who denies anything to do with the death. They also interview Jake's older brother and his college teacher but the case is proving to be a hard nut to crack. Meanwhile, Gerry is being overly grumpy over his daughter's upcoming marriage and her choice of husband, a solicitor to whom he's takes an immediate dislike.—garykmcd
