| Summary |
While heading a National Crime Commission investigation into the death of a young cricketer, Janet King (Marta Dusseldorp) uncovers a web of organised crime where the public face of professional sport meets the underworld of match fixing, performance enhancing drugs, money laundering and murder. Aided by Federal Sergeant Bianca Grieve (Anita Hegh) and reporting to mentor Tony Gillies (Peter Kowitz), Janet has an otherwise new team, with her former right-hand Richard Stirling (Hamish Michael) now a top barrister for several of the athletes under suspicion and the opportunistic Owen Mitchell (Damian Walshe-Howling) now head of the DPP. When a ghost from Janet's past returns as a suspect, ethical and personal dilemmas collide and the celebrated prosecutor witnesses first-hand the price some athletes pay to stay on top. |
