It gives viewers unprecedented access to the garda of The K, Ireland’s busiest policing district which includes Blanchardstown, Finglas and Cabra.

Each episode highlights issues ranging from gangland violence to the drugs epidemic sweeping the country. It shines a light on the damage caused by drug use to the reality of the effects of social media and the dangers involved for young people who find themselves involved with gangs. The series also takes a poignant look at mental health and those affected by it.
