First episode of a six-part serial Irretrievable Breakdown by SIMON MASTERS
Ben and Angela Conroy are solicitors working for Angela's father. But Ben-a young firebrand-believes conventional law practice is outmoded. Instead he champions the revolutionary idea of Neighbourhood Law Centres: no nonsense legal advice available at no cost. In the ensuing conflict Angela finds herself trapped between her husband and her father, with her marriage to Ben becoming the main battleground.
