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

In the interim Zane brought Johnson up to speed with what was happening while Jerry stood by absorbing all the details again. He informed Johnson that he and Sanchez would move to the cabin he had arranged and that Hope had agreed to meet him that night at the house. He would speak with her and see if he could get her on board with him. If not then they had to track her and try to do everything without her. 


Sanchez finally finished with the phone and joined them. “All done,” he said. 


“Great,” Zane smiled. “Now I need to get cooking. Johnson, can you drop me at my place?” 


Johnson gave Zane a ride back to his home and left. 


Zane watched the road from inside his house for a while making sure no suspicious vehicles passed by or stopped. Then he began preparing dinner. 


At six-thirty, Hope arrived by taxi. She walked down his drive and knocked on the door. Zane had finished cooking dinner and taken a shower before she arrived. He opened the door and welcomed her in.
