| Story: |
This powerful crime drama tells the story of a tense battle
between a dangerous criminal family and the police, and the young man who
finds himself caught in the crossfire.
Following the death of his mother, Joshua 'J' Cody finds himself living with his hitherto estranged family - a family populated by armed robbers and drug dealers. J quickly comes to believe that he is a player in this world. But, as he soon discovers, this world is far larger and more menacing than he could ever imagine. When tensions between family and police reach a bloody peak and J finds himself at the centre of a cold-blooded revenge plot, it is the job of senior cop, Nathan Leckie, to lure J into the police fold and then shepherd him through a complex minefield of witness protection, corrupt cops, slippery lawyers and a paranoid and vengeful underworld. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
