There's a serial armed robber, a brutal home invasion and a mysterious cat burglar, not to mention the offender disguised in a police uniform stalking Challis's beat. But with Sergeant Ellen Destry away, a boss who's more committed to budget cuts than policework and a team struggling to separate their personal lives from the professional, one more case could be enough to push Challis to his breaking point.
