Synopsis

Set in Perth’s notorious KGB (after the suburbs of Koondoola, Girrawheen, Balga), the series follows two rookie Aboriginal detectives, tough guy Jack and gentle giant Nigel, as they deal with the chaos of their new jobs, no-nonsense boss, work rivals, drug dealers and culprits who consistently turn out to be family members.

Despite battling their own insecurities at every turn, and the fact that Jack bullied Nigel in high school, these two might just turn out to be KGB’s finest detectives.
