After suffering a nervous breakdown, high profile defence barrister William Travers turned his back on the murder cases that made him his name and moved with his family to Suffolk. One day, an old university friend asks Travers to defend him for a murder he swears he did not commit. Old allegiances are tested and his family's fragile peace is threatened as Travers returns to London and his old chambers. Meanwhile, a body is found on a deserted farm in the Suffolk countryside and Detective Sergeant Mark Wenborn is assigned his biggest case yet. Despite strong opposite from his wife Jane, Travers decides to visit murder suspect and old university friend Martin Newall. As Travers is drawn into Newall's case, he finds himself plunged into a conspiracy which stretches far beyond the courtroom while fighting off the forces that threaten to destroy him once again. Meanwhile, ambitious detective Mark Wenborn is determined to track down the killer of the murdered man discovered on a Suffolk farm. With no sign of motive or struggle, Wenborn thinks the case is more an execution than a murder. William Travers continues to probe into the Martin Newall murder case while valiantly fighting off the ghosts of his past. Sure that the missing laptop will hold the key, Travers and Natalie Chandra visit the scene of the crime and meet the chambermaid who will become a key witness. Meanwhile, Jane is on a quest to find out more about Alan Stewart, the young offender whose debut novel she would love to publish. Wenborn's investigations are advanced further when he goes to visit Jeremy Forbes-Watson, Travers's old adversary. Travers and Natalie Chandra are shocked to discover that Lucy Wilson had a history for blackmail, strengthening the prosecution's case against Martin Newall. With Wenborn breathing down Travers's neck, the pressure really mounts. When Wenborn finds out that his wife Maggie has been caught shoplifting, causing him professional embarrassment, he lashes out at her. Later, he stumbles across a crucial coincidence which could provide the missing link between the Spaull killer and his prime suspect. Has he got his man at last? When Travers discovers that Lucy was being paid to spy on the giant oil company Qestrel, things finally begin to drop into place. Meanwhile, a vengeful Wenborn resorts to blackmail in a desperate bid to get his man. The trial finally begins and the prosecution and defence go head-to-head in a battle that goes way beyond the personal between Travers and Forbes-Watson. But is this really the final chapter? In law and life nothing is ever black and white, and when there is injustice, all the rules change.
Justice
Drama series about a newly-opened public justice centre and its charismatic frontman. The centre has been open for a month, and Judge Patrick Coburn has so far been unable to convince his staff of his new approach to justice, never mind the local community. To add insult to injury, the PJC has been broken into overnight. It doesn't look like much has been taken, but a key memo from the Ministry of Justice is missing. It is down to Coburn to find the culprit before the centre's reputation is damaged any further. While Coburn takes delivery of a new bike and starts roaming around Dovefield, court reporter Louise continues to dig into his background. Old neighbours are happy to gossip, and Chinese whispers starts to spread in the justice centre about Coburn. Meanwhile, Kaz is getting drawn further and further into Jake's world and alarm bells start ringing for Sharna. Still shocked by Coburn's revelation, Joe insists that he must come clean before someone else does it for him. A chance encounter with drug user Angie makes Coburn reassess his attitude to street crime, and he realises that many of the community's problems have the same root: Jake Little. Judge Coburn and Father Jim finally start to talk about the past, and Coburn makes a shocking discovery. A stand-off between Sharna and Jake Little reveals some surprising news. Coburn's overuse of Lemon for Men gets up everyone's nose, and some miscommunication between Coburn, Louise and Probation Officer Haley leads to romantic embarrassment. Reporter Louise is desperate to publish her scandalous story about the judge, but her editor warns her to check her facts thoroughly. Coburn finds a loophole to send one of Jake's henchmen down, eliciting a declaration of war from Jake. Rebuffed by both Darren and Kaz, Jake bares his teeth by torching a car in the community centre car park as a warning. When Jake Little is charged with arson, the staff at the Public Justice Centre finally have the chance to take him off the streets for good. Instead of passing the case on to the City Crown Court, Coburn decides to try the case at the Dovefield Public Justice Centre, and this time they have an unimpeachable witness - Father Jim Kelly.
