Kaitlyn and her mother continue living in the notorious Roxborough Council Estate, and she begins to make decent money via the various scams she dreams up.

But she never forgets her brother, and when their paths cross again as adults, whilst she is being hunted by the police and he is a leading defence lawyer, she will find that blood really is thicker than water . . .
