}}Secret City is an Australian political thriller set in a world of secrets, lies, murder and betrayal, based on the best-selling novels The Marmalade Files and The Mandarin Code by Chris Uhlmann and Steve Lewis. It premiered on Foxtel's Showcase in June 5, 2016 and on Netflix, internationally, on June 26, 2018. The series is produced by Matchbox Pictures and Foxtel.[1][2]

Synopsis

Beneath the placid facade of Canberra, amidst rising tension between China and America, Canberra press gallery journalist Harriet Dunkley (Anna Torv) forces her way closer to the truth, uncovering a secret city of interlocked conspiracies which will threaten her career, her life and endangers the freedom of every Australian.[4]

Secret City : Under the Eagle

The story picks up with Harriet Dunkley (Anna Torv), not long out of prison and unwittingly ensnared in a military and political cover-up with Catriona Bailey’s (Jacki Weaver) fingerprints all over it. Harriet’s search for the truth leads her back into Canberra’s corridors of power, this time working for a maverick Independent MP. What she unearths is a military program so secret even the Prime Minister knows nothing of its existence. Who really is running the country?[5]
