Summary
The detectives investigate the kidnapping of two boys in 1979, which they believe could be linked to a recent spate of disappearances. The youngsters involved in the earlier case escaped - though their abductor was never found. Fearing they may be on the trail of a serial killer, the detectives also uncover a link with another unsolved case - the assault on a champion fisherman.
