Senior Sergeant Tony Signorotto and his loyal team of blue have fought many battles against crime in the heartland of the inner Melbourne suburb of Carlton.

Now a new threat has emerged, and it is one of their own in the blue uniform. Do they trust him to see if he can save himself and his career? Or do they give him just enough rope to hang himself?

This thrilling conclusion to Copsey's 'Justice' trilogy will take them on a journey that spans illegal gambling, the Russian mafia, an international begging scam, and down a one-way path of murder and kidnapping.

In a fight to contain the destruction, Tony Signorotto and Phil Stone put their careers on the line. Signorotto leads from the front and tries to save his wayward colleague; Stone faces the ignominy of a forced retirement if they cannot stop a ruthless Russian gangster. Can a local police force do its job when international diplomacy is muddying already muddy water?

The Hand of Justice is an intriguing mix of politics, policing, and power. The stakes are high and reputations will be made or lost.
