However, XXXX's boss, Jimmy Price (played by Cranham), gives him a tough assignment. X has to find the daughter of Jimmy's old friend Edward, Charlotte Spencer Temple, who has disappeared after developing a drug problem. There are multiple complications however: three million pounds worth of Grade A Ecstasy, a bloodthirsty militant Serbian gang, as well as numerous double-crossings. XXXX has to use all of his considerable talent to secure his own escape, without being drawn back into the 'cake mix'.
