Overview
Patty Hewes is back in action, tackling the most challenging case of her illustrious career. Following up her decisive victory over corrupt CEO Arthur Frobisher and her decimation of Ultima National Resources, Patty has recently been appointed by the U.S. government to recover billions of dollars in stolen assets from the largest investment fraud in U.S. history, a fraud perpetrated by the esteemed financier Louis Tobin.
Inspired by recent events in the world's economic collapse, Season 3 showcases Damages's signature legal-thriller storytelling as Patty Hewes takes on the Tobin family - a secretive clan determined to protect its interests at all costs. The Tobin family members have maintained their complete and total innocence. They claim not to have known anything about Louis Tobin's fraud. But Patty believes otherwise and will stop at nothing to prove it. Patty and her trusted lieutenant Tom Shayes battle against the Tobin family's trusted attorney Leonard Winstone, son Joe Tobin, and Louis Tobin's wife Marilyn Tobin.
