영국 비밀정보부 엘리트 요원인 지미 비커스는 몇 달간 아프가니스탄에 머물며 빼어난 기량으로 위기에 몰린 작전을 무사히 마무리하지만, 덕분에 예상보다 체류가 길어진다. 그 사이에 절도를 저지르던 갱단과 몸싸움을 벌이다가, 사고로 한 명을 숨지게 한 지미의 아버지가 범죄 조직의 앙심을 사게 된다. 결국 갱단 패거리가 노부부의 집에 침입해 폭행을 가하고, 지미의 부모님을 집과 함께 불태운다. 부모님을 지키기는커녕 장례식에도 참석하지 못한 지미는 뒤늦게 돌아와 죄책감에 몸부림치고, 그런 지미를 위로해주는 건 이혼을 앞두고 별거 중인 아내 모건과 어린 시절부터 절친한 친구인 그리프뿐이다. 결국, 지미는 부모님을 잔인하게 살해한 패거리에게 처절한 복수를 감행하기로 결심하고..

Mike Jacobs thinks he's safe in Witness Protection in Spain. However, when he's spotted at an England game, a deadly game of cat and mouse between London, Marbella and New York ensues.

A bar fight leaves up-and-coming professional footballer Andy injured and out of the game. Needing money to support his pregnant wife and himself, he buys an ice cream van and gets to work. When a gang of Polish drug runners starts to irritate him, he joins a British gang involved in football hooliganism for protection.

Damien, a London copper has a past he's trying to forget. Before joining the force he ran with a football firm, getting involved in tear-ups up and down the country. Now he's on the other side of the law and faces a tough decision, side with his old crew or protect London as it burns and rioters run amok. Falling in love with fellow cop Louise, he is quickly alerted to a street-level uprising that is about to shake London. Amidst the brutalities presented by the riots, he fights for justice at Louise's expense. Having been raped by a rioter known to him, Damien finds himself levelling with the rioters, fighting a war he cannot win, as much against the rioters as against himself.

Casual football hooligan Mike Jacobs is going nowhere in life when he meets old friend Eddie Hill at a football match that turns nasty off the pitch. Under Eddie’s tutelage he soon finds himself inducted into the world of credit card fraud, where organised gangs withdraw hundreds of thousands of pounds from cash machines every night. As Mike becomes seduced by the money and women that come with his new lifestyle, the dangers increase and he soon finds events spiralling beyond his control.

The rise and fall of the Essex Boys gang - the drugs, the violence and, of course, the murders. The real story is the most shocking of all.
