Stephen Peacocke will star in the Nine series.
Nine reveals the hotly anticipated series will unveil the untold story of how one woman’s secret double life helped to fight the Melbourne gangland wars and trigger a Royal Commission.
“Nicola had the ultimate trust of Melbourne’s underworld and was gangland’s go-to defence lawyer, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Carl Williams, Tony Mokbel, the Morans, the Carlton Crew and Roberta Williams,” Nine says of the mini-series. “While Nicola knew the underworld’s dirty secrets, they had no idea of hers.”
Yep, we’re already hooked on this one!
