With the help of his dedicated team, Riley begins to delve into Baxter's life and soon realises that the amenable family man had been indulging in the 'services' of some dubious websites, ones where young women hook up with older men in return for 'favours', and there's one woman in particular he'd like to speak to. A woman calling herself Goldilocks ... show less
