HUGH WALKER (Matt Day) seems to have it all, he's 31 years old, charming, handsome and a senior associate in the largest law firm. His clients include the country's most powerful banks and insurance companies, and his employers see him as a litigator who will eventually join their own esteemed ranks as living Gods.

Hugh longs for an office with a harbour view but there's just one problem. He promised himself that he would never cross to the dark side. Now when he looks in the mirror, he doesn't like what he sees. Deception mounts deception as he also falls out of love with his fabulous girlfriend, Helen (Marta Dusseldorp) and in love with the divine Caroline (Lisa McCune).

The closer he gets to the top of the greasy pole, the more slippery it becomes. Hugh just manages to hold on ...until he finds himself the only witness to a frantic, sexual indiscretion on the boardroom table, and the centre of a bitter power struggle between two warring factions within the firm's senior partners. He seems damned whichever way he turns, and that harbour view is becoming more and more elusive...
