Juliette Gardiner, investigative reporter, is brutally gunned down in a car park. Three people witnessed this attack: her killer, her source, and her ex-lover - Nick Buchanan.

A star scalp for Nick, and a killer off the streets, or so he thought. A niggle of doubt grows into serious accusations when Nick suspects his former mentor of evidence tampering.

Will the team go too far to protect one of their own or will Nick be forced to fall on his own sword?
