In London the Metropolitan Police鈥檚 extradition unit are facing two very different challenges. DS Pete Rance and his team struggle through the rain and snow looking for two fugitives wanted in Poland. One man is convicted of rape, while the other has a history of drugs offences, and both have time still to serve in prison.

Simon Dutton was one of the UK鈥檚 wealthiest cocaine smugglers, bringing drugs into the country concealed in air-conditioning units destined for a fake company. After watching his gang for months, police decided to intercept the next shipment, swapping the drugs for fake packages and following the consignment to Leeds. The gang member who was waiting was arrested, and soon the whole gang was taken down. But Dutton had disappeared.

For six years, he managed to evade capture, using false names and passports to live a luxury lifestyle on the move around Europe. But like many fugitives on the run, his downfall was his need to see his family. By tracing their travels back and forth to Greece鈥檚 second city Thessaloniki, Hellenic Police and the UK鈥檚 National Crime Agency eventually tracked down the international criminal to a bar in the city.
