In the first season of South African crime drama Lioness, Samantha Hugo (Shannon Esra) emerges from an eight-year prison sentence determined to reunite with her four children after her husband framed her for fraud before his death. But Sam soon discovers her husband is, in fact, still alive and fighting to keep her children away from her. Despite his sabotage and all of the forces that stand in her way, Samantha remains determined to bring justice to her family.

18 months after the shocking events of that first season, Sam must once again face down her enemies and be willing to do whatever it takes to reunite her family – and keep them safe.
