It is 1957, and WWII bomb disposal hero Captain ‘mad Hoagy’ Hoagland, now fallen on hard times, appears at Brighton Police Station to deliver two boxes. One contains a silver truncheon; an award for valour for Sergeant Brunswick. The other contains the head of one of Mrs Groynes’ old criminal accomplices. It is a warning that Mrs G’s evil nemesis Adelaide Vine is back, hell-bent on revenge…
Plus, Mrs G and Sgt Brunswick take part in a talent contest; a Canadian filmmaker plans to make a film about the Brighton police; Inspector Steine is behaving oddly, big secrets are revealed and the boys and blue face a terrible threat.
