Sinopse: When you double cross the king of London be prepared to pay the ultimate price. Business has gone well for Billy and George and they are now the proud owners of a second club, but it’s not without its problems. Known previously as a club where drugs and dodgy dealers were welcome, Billy and George intend to change that, but it won’t be easy. When Billy’s dog is stolen and he’s tipped off as to why, he asks Reggie and his friends to help him. It’s then he sees firsthand how dangerous the world of dog fighting is. In London the Ramon family are struggling to come to terms with a secret that Vito has kept hidden. It’s no surprise that Tony sees it differently to the rest of his family and faces it with aggression. Then tragedy strikes, only this time Tony is left a broken man and along with his sons wants revenge on the person he feels is responsible. Knowing his father could cause a war between bosses; Carlo takes up the gauntlet and fights for his family’s honour. Tony finally realises that Belle and his family don’t see him as the wonderful family man he thinks he’s been and he wants to right that. It’s when he hands the business over completely to his sons he begins to plan his future with Belle. Things are going well until a ruthless European crime boss tries to muscle in on his turf. Tony steps up again to protect his family, he joins forces with a long time friend and fellow boss, but there’s a traitor in the camp which paves the way for betrayal and murder.
