The department is a PR stunt, there to distract the public from the failures of an under-resourced, failing police force that is glad to see the back of him.

So, when the stone-cold trail of a prominent civil servant who disappeared several years ago starts to heat up, Carl is back doing what he does best - rattling cages and refusing to take no for an answer.
