Noble Cause Corruption by Fin Kennedy

DI Maxine Boyd is a newly promoted police detective but she is unprepared for life in CID. Following the apparent suicide of a fellow officer in her first week she begins to uncover the true nature of this overstressed and overstretched department. Could it be that officers routinely take the law into their own hands in order to get the job done? Soon she is tested to the limit as she realises how far she has to go to remain loyal to her CID team.

Noble Cause Corruption is authentic and an original police drama. Serving and ex police officers were consulted during the making of the drama.
