Jane Halifax is enjoying a life away from working as a forensic psychiatrist on the police frontline as a university professor. She is also in a stable and loving long-term relationship with her musician partner Ben, and is comfortable in her role as stepmother to his daughter Zoe. However, the case of a serial killer who is terrorising Melbourne lures her back to the job she left behind as the case suddenly gets very personal.

As a mystery sniper terrorises Melbourne, forensic psychiatrist Jane Halifax refuses to join the police Task Force hunting the killer — until a murder close to home changes her life forever.

Note: Halifax Retribution was produced as a 8 episode series so this should be considered episodes 1 and 2 but with a run time of only 73 minutes, it is a lot shorter than your typical 90min double episode.
