Storms

Members of a notorious gang of teenage boys on an estate in east
Manchester are being murdered in a particularly gruesome manner. Is it
some kind of vendetta? The list of potential suspects would be long if
it was but Detective Superintendent Jeff Barton and his team have to
contend with a hostile neighbourhood that won't co-operate with them and
the death of an elderly woman on the estate who was prevented from
getting to hospital on time. A white girl associated with the gang has
gone to ground but why? The body count rises and Jeff is suspicious of
certain individuals not directly involved with the estate but who may
hold vital information, including his sister who comes back into his
life following an incident between her employer and Jeff's nephew. 
Difficult and uncomfortable questions about race relations and the
nature of sexual abuse can't be ignored as Jeff and his team try to find
their way through a case that isn't quite as simple as just murder.
