Paige Pennington

DS Paige Pennington is a Detective Constable in the NCA and a main character in the second season of Bulletproof.

Recruitment
Paige is first introduced as a new recruit alongside Scarlett Hailton, and the two work with the existing team on tracking down the supplier of a new, experimental drug on the streets.

Paige is later involved in the undercover operation to "steal" back the Markides money from the NCA lock-up. After Bishop and Munroe go silent, she storms the building with Scarlett, but is held at gunpoint by Pike who is undercover.

Modelling agency
Paige teams up with Scooch to gather information relating to a modelling agency ran by a man named Patrick Straker, who has ties with the Markides family — Eleanor Markides in particular. They track down an apartment full of beds where the models have been sleeping, and one of the girls, Jodie, gives them information about the registered office of the agency; when they arrive, however, it is revealed that the address is registered to a different business.

Paige heads back to the apartment with Scooch, however the girl — and all of her belongings — are gone. The two report back to Tanner that Straker is more than likely aware of them and has jumped ship.

After Bishop and Pike inform the NCA of the trafficking between the Liu family and the Markides, the NCA arrive at the docks just in time to stop the transfer. Paige pulls a gun on Straker — the head of the modelling agency — causing him to take a hostage girl. Bishop arrives moments later and also pulls a gun on Straker, but ultimately Paige is the one to deliver the fatal shot to the head that kills Straker.
