The series starts with new female recruit Morgan Cartright (Georgie Parker) joining the ranks of South East Fire station in Brisbane. Morgan has to face prejudices in the male dominated profession, mainly from the icy platoon sergeant "Spit".

The local arson squad also play a very prominent part from the beginning of season 1. Detective Jean Diamond (Liddy Clark) has been investigating a series of fires for over a year, which she believes to actually be the work of a firefighter. Knowing that Morgan has just joined South East, Jean approaches Morgan and puts her theory to her. She asks that Morgan will be her "eyes and ears" in the fire station. This makes life complicated for Morgan.

Ultimately, Detective Diamond's theory is proved correct. It is revealed that one of the fire fighters from South East has been lighting fires.

Season 2 was centred around a different fire station. However, three fire fighters from the original series were retained and joined by new characters at West End fire station.
