Investigators from her Majesty's Revenue and Customs track an unscrupulous gang, who are bringing women and children over from Lithuania and using them to steal over three-million pounds in false benefit claims. And Dom meets Charlotte, who was diagnosed with a life-threatening brain tumour at the age of 16. Surgery and the treatment that followed it tested Charlotte and her family to their limits. Children's charity CLIC Sargent helped them through it.
