When Eve takes on a case prosecuting an African militia leader in the International Criminal Court, Michael and Kate are drawn in and their lives are turned upside-down. The series takes place in the UK, the US, Europe, and Africa, and delves into challenging issues including race, justice, personal integrity and self-determination, on a global scale.
