Summary

After his public assassination in a supermarket car park, the hunt for Gerbil's killers begins. A death in the Daniel family heralds a brutal new chapter in the never ending feud.

With such a high profile murder, police are under pressure to catch Kevin Carroll's killers and the manhunt takes an international twist. A high profile member of the Daniel family dies and after a period of relative calm, the dispute between the two crime groups reignites in a series of brutal attacks. One man is even targeted as he drops his child off at school.
