On Christmas day the team is called to the home of haulage company owner Andy McMorris to find three corpses and Andy disappeared. Sniper shots ring out, wounding DI Gibbs and McMorris's blooded daughter Mel tells Nikki her father shot at her and her horse. A large number of weapons are found in the home suggesting illegal gun importation whilst the diary of Mel's sister Stevie expresses hatred for her father and his estranged wife Zoe. DCI Cooke, a friend of the family assumes the case but appears to be hiding something and Clarissa discovers that the 999 call reporting the shots was made over twenty miles away.
