He sends DS Liam Smith undercover to see what this priest and these ex-cons are up to. It turns out the father has given the boys an intriguing assignment. Every month, they drive a Volvo to an orphanage in Holland with food and clothes, driving a supposedly empty car back into England.The brothers soon realize their car is not empty on the return trip, and this realization puts them in grave danger. Smith, along with the rest of New Scotland Yard, must deduce Father O'Brien's plan and hopefully divert a disaster.
