In this gripping legal drama, Senior Crown Prosecutor Janet King (Marta Dusseldorp) returns to work after a year's maternity leave determined to prove she still has her edge. But Janet finds a very different DPP. The Attorney General has directed there be a closer relationship with police, and Chief Superintendent Jack Rizzoli (Vince Colosimo) is taking an unnerving interest in prosecutions, while ambitious ex-police prosecutor and DPP newcomer, Owen Ramsey (Damian Walshe-Howling) isn't afraid to bend the rules to score a conviction. When Janet's first seemingly straightforward case escalates into a shocking murder, both she and the DPP solicitors are propelled into a complex web of corruption and conspiracy that shakes the police, judiciary and government to their core. The case will threaten Janet's career, her family, and ultimately her life.
