On an ordinary Friday afternoon, a gunman gains entry to Whites Chambers. His job is to find a particular barrister. But which one? For a few people, his arrival isn't as much of a shock as it is to others.
The barristers work hard defending and prosecuting the unfortunate beings who find themselves at the mercy of the English criminal legal system. But when professional lines between them and Manchester's organised criminal gang are crossed, it can only lead to trouble.
Samantha has no idea that her husband, Alistair, is working for the gang. He wants to stop. But once you're in, you're in, they tell him. There's no way out.
Robert's drinking and gambling habits are ruining his career and his relationship. One bad decision leads to another. And another.
Sebastian used to love being a barrister, but then he receives two death threats in one day.
Jamilla doesn't know about her father's death threats. She is struggling to keep her relationship with Robert on track. He is ruining them both. How can she help him when he can no longer repay his debt to the gang? She can't ask her father for help. He has troubles of his own.
Samantha's mysterious disappearance raises more questions than answers and puts Alistair under the spotlight. Jamilla has to find out where Samantha is and whether Alistair knows.
