What is Crossed Lines? In a sentence, it is a high-speed, complex, geographically wide-ranging, quite technical, sometimes brutal, sometimes sexy, sometimes funny, often violent, corruption driven, crime soaked, duplicitous, deceptive, confusing, thrilling, passionately human and rather strange love story.In Part One: No Choice, we meet the players. First, Julia Kelso, by day a respected and respectable senior police officer, by night a solo dancing queen who is also a savage streetfighter with a rebellious streak. Second, a tired detective who is being sidelined; Alan Ferdinand has reached the pinnacle of his career, he is worn out and worn down, unhappy and practically broke. He is watching a drama unfold and can see that it will be horrific. If it continues the way it has started, when the curtain falls he will have been outed as the villain of the piece, and he knows he isn’t. Finally Mel Dunn, an intelligence analyst who lives and breathes organised facts and data behind a computer screen. Sharp, intuitive and seemingly reserved, behind the façade she is organised but also rebellious, and with an adventurous sexual secret. Three people, three journeys, all thrown together and now moving in the same direction to take on the most serious corruption, which the system cannot beat on its own.The story begins!
