In episode one, Lana is just back from secondment training Ukrainian bomb disposal teams but has not returned to active duty.

She is giving a routine talk to security officers from major financial institutions about the issues surrounding bomb-centred terrorism when there is a bomb attack in the heart of the city.

Lana is closest to the incident, but is she ready to take it on?

Alongside Vicky the second series features returning cast members Nabil Elouahabi (Unforgotten, The Tower) as Hass, Eric Shango (Suspicion) as Danny, Mark Stanley (Happy Valley, The Thief, His Wife and The Canoe) as DI Thom Youngblood, Kerry Godliman (After Life, Whitstable Pearl) as Sonya Reeves, Kris Hitchen (Four Lives) as John, and Kevin Eldon (Sanditon) as Jeff.
