The peaceful Hillarys marina environment is suddenly interrupted by the arrival of Harry Josephs, a small time hoodlum from Liverpool England. Josephs quickly establishes a protection racket around the marina businesses with two violent hirelings who work for him and demand a monthly stipend for business protection. With the easy money quickly multiplying, Josephs decides to enter the world-wide arms trade and deal in illicit weaponry to bring in even greater profits, but he is scammed by an on-line cash transfer that he makes to a bank in England. Greg Langford, a government Asio agent and ex-army officer becomes aware of the bullying activities of Josephs and takes up the case at the behest of his friend Barry Wilder who has also suffered at the hands of the gang. Harry Josephs returns to England to retrieve his money from the bank but unwittingly becomes a victim of an old enemy who he previously tried to eliminate, but failed. Now his nemesis has lured him back on to home ground and inevitably Josephs becomes a victim himself.

In a thrilling conclusion, Langford dismantles the military arms operation in Galveston and returns to the Hillarys Marina in Western Australia to wrap up the remnants of the standover business. With the help of Bob Hersey, his police officer friend and the business community he is able restore peace and harmony to Breakwater Bay.
