Helen West Casebook

Season 1

She's a workaholic lawyer with a conscience and a messy personal life. As a crown prosecutor, Helen West deals with domestic abuse, sexual molestation, and murder. Driven by a strong sense of justice and compassion, she pursues cases even when her boss insists she drop them and goes out of her way to offer victims a helping hand. Although she's determined to right the wrongs in others' lives, her own personal affairs could use some work, particularly her relationship with handsome policeman Geoffrey Bailey (Conor Mullen, Reckless, Holby City).
