Background

Samantha becomes the only Government minister left after the virus.

The Prime Minister, her other colleagues and her family have all died from the virus. She moves into a small ecopolis, which is a completely self-sufficient facilty where she establishes a Provisional Government.

Series One

Her aims are to restore order and absolute moral and legal law, despite the vulgarity and brutishness of the duties she assumes, including executing a woman put on trial and found guilty of having invaded the complex looking for supplies. Later she forms an uneasy alliance with Dexter, a violent gang leader who had been threatening her community.

Series Two

Samantha Willis returns in the second series continuing her ambitious plans for expansion, aided and abetted by her henchman Dexter. As the number of compromises she makes grows, how much longer can her dreams of justice and fair governance last?
