Thursday morning a security van rolls up to the Post Office on Maryhill Road, inside the staff, cleaners and four men armed with shotguns have been waiting over two hours. The robbery has netted a quarter of a million pounds. The men of P division start to search for the criminals. Peter Turnbull has worked as a steelworker, social worker, this police procedural series is portrayed with brutal savagery and great accuracy about real inner city crime. For more background on this series look at my review of Fair Friday.
