Zane has worked hard to make the police chief of Hurstville at his age. It's a job he intends to keep.

An anonymous tip-off leads Zane and his team to arrest a queenpin and her recruits who have been tasked to set up shop in Hurstville.

Hope is ruthless and will let nothing stand in her way not even her feelings for Zane. She has a job to do and has no choice but to do it for a reason she prefers not to disclose to Zane. She nevertheless tries to warn Zane that he can't win the fight for Hurstville that lies ahead in the hope that he will give up and leave.

But Zane's not a quitter. He's never sold out and he's not about to start now. As a result, he finds himself struggling to juggle his conscience and the need for justice with his feelings for Hope and his desire to save her from the trouble she is involved in.

Hope finally makes it clear where her priorities lie and just as Zane appears to move on and begins to rekindle his relationship with an old flame, Hope drags Zane to the forefront of her actions in Hurstville which threatens to destroy everything Zane has ever wanted and worked for.

Can Zane prove his innocence and get the woman he loves?

Love & Justice

“Damn bitch. You want me to stand out here all night?” the man on the other side said irritated. 


Hope opened the door to let him in. She closed the door behind him once he had entered. He looked around the room assessing the comfort it offered. 


“What’s this place set us back per night?” he asked. 


“Less than the other one,” Hope said bluntly, referring to the place she had vacated after Zane had found her there. “How’s Lisa?” 


“She jus’ fine Hope. Jus’ fine.” 


“Let me talk to her then,” Hope said. 


“Well ain’t we just full of demands,” the man said sarcastically. 


“Listen Aaron. I don’t know what you’re doing here. There’s no need for you to be here. Everything’s on track.” 


“Really? We gettin’ more reports from others than from you. The word is, we hear is you cozyin’ up to the chief of po-leece,” he replied looking at her coldly.
