Beech and Carver investigate a case of vandalism against a car dealership. Beech's snout informs him that the owner is involved in a long-running dispute with a loanshark, but before he and Carver can make headway, they realise they have been drawn into the middle a gangland war. However, Beech is sure that the mysterious disappearance of villain Mickey Rates has more to do with the case than meets the eye.
