Synopsis

The series follows a clandestine unit, existing in the grey area between the law and justice, living on the edge and playing the criminal elite at their own game.

Led by the sharp and elusive Jack Quinn (Warren Brown), alongside straight-talking Jessica Jones (Shelley Conn) and digital whizz-kid TomTom Tomkins (Andrew-Lee Potts). The team will stop at nothing to catch the criminals, receiving their target from the mysterious Helen Barlow (Gina McKee), as they weave a web of cunning and deception to trap their targets and bring to justice by any means possible.

Episode !

An innocent family is terrorised and their father murdered in cold blood. Everyone knows that ruthless criminal Nick Mason (Keith Allen) is behind it and when Mason, known as the 'Teflon Man', walks free from his trial for the third time in five years that he has evaded justice, Helen Barlow, convinced Mason has at least one corrupt police officer on his payroll, calls on Jack Quinn and his team for help to take Mason down and get him off the streets.
