A gang of masked
girls armed with baseball bats run riot at a
wedding, but escape with the presents before PC
Taviner and PC Hollis can catch them. The gang
have been causing headaches for Sun Hill for
weeks, and although she is not involved in the
case, Supt. Chandler sends DC Kate Spears to visit
the local schools, ostensibly to encourage
students to join the Met's Volunteer Cadet Corps,
but secretly to obtain information on the gang and
its members. The gang's violence intensifies and
the bride's sister, Debbie Pike, is found badly
beaten after an altercation with a mother and her
baby on the high street. As rumours about her and
Supt. Chandler fly around the station, Kate Spears
pushes an eager schoolboy informant too far, and
he too is found bashed. When he regains
consciousness, he tells Spears that Debbie is a
gang member. Debbie admits she arranged for the
gang to attack the wedding as she was in love with
the groom, and Spears finds herself in grave
danger when she confronts the gang on her own, but
is rescued in the nick of time when the police
raid the youth club.
