Episode 1

The Metropolitan Police’s extradition team carry out an arrest warrant for a man wanted in Romania. Five years ago, Dorin Oprean was convicted of an attempted rape against an 11-year-old and has seven years left to serve in prison. How quickly can the team get this high-risk offender off the streets?

In 2013, an investigation by an elite team of Scotland Yard detectives into the biggest organised crime gangs in London uncovered the drug kingpin behind a multimillion-pound racket. By making his own deliveries, Paul Monk blew his cover and, when his associates were arrested, fled abroad. Working with Spanish authorities, British officers tracked him to a town near Benidorm. A coded document found in his luxury villa would eventually reveal the true extent of Monk’s crimes.

A Derbyshire police unit that specialises in locating people who have a history of committing crime abroad is on the trail of a convicted Polish kidnapper. It’s the job of the foreign national intelligence team to find him and return him to his home country.
