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

Zane put the phone down. Johnson was watching him and heard his side of the call. He was sure Johnson could tell he was upset. He refrained from swearing and expressing his thoughts about the Commissioner. It would not be a good example for a subordinate. 


Forcing a smile he spoke to Johnson. “Okay. That’s taken care of. Let’s hit the road.” 


Johnson decided to say nothing about the reaction he had seen from Zane when he spoke with the Commissioner. Instead, he followed Zane out to his cruiser. 


“I’ll drive,” Zane replied. “I’m not fucking royalty and I don’t need my ass kissed. Got it?” 


Johnson hesitated not sure why Zane was asking him again. 


“Good man,” Zane smiled and they got in the car. 


“Where are we headed?” Johnson asked. 


“We’re going to see some of the informants again. Some of the informants you questioned yesterday.”
