"CW": A big deal prosecutor, with a very successful practice of heavy, classy work.

Nicknamed "Lady Macbeth" for her uncompromising and vicious approach in court, she鈥檚 as sharp as sharp can be and frightened of nothing. Now a member of Shoe Lane, CW is determined to get the bigger cases but can she hack it?

Seemingly stuck with sex cases, she wants the increased money and power more high profile cases bring. CW throws her hat into the ring when the chance to become Head of Chambers appears, opening up the options and aligning herself with an unlikely ally.

But is she really an option when her reliance on alcohol continues to grow?
