Miles will try to keep his two worlds from meeting and will have to strike a fine balance so that his crime ring chief Amara (Lidia Porto) doesn’t get suspicious. Caroyln Dodd will play Miles daughter Emma with Lucy Walters playing his estranged wife Katie.
There’s a lot of good people behind the show with Emmy nominee Allen Coulter and Adam Arkin in the directors chair so keep an eye out for it when it comes to our screens on June 6th.
