Als Finn Wallace, der Boss des einflussreichsten Gangster-Clans, bei einem Attentat stirbt, hinterlässt das ein Macht-Vakuum und Ansprüche werden erhoben: Die Wallaces scheinen überall von Rivalen umzingelt zu sein, zumal niemand weiß, wer den Anschlag verübt hat.
So liegt es an dem jungen und impulsiven Sean Wallace (Joe Cole), in die Fußstapfen seines Vaters zu treten. Dafür holt er sich Hilfe bei der Dumani-Familie unter der Führung von Ed Dumani. Einen weiteren Verbündeten findet Sean womöglich in dem geheimnisvollen Verlierer Elliot Finch, der sich auffallend für die Familie Wallace interessiert. Tatsächlich findet sich Elliot schnell in den inneren Gefilden der größten Verbrecherorganisation Londons wieder.
Set in the heart of one of the world's most dynamic and multicultural cities, Gangs of London tells the story of city being torn apart by the turbulent power struggles of the international gangs that control it and the sudden power vacuum that's created when the head of London's most powerful crime family is assassinated. For 20 years, Finn Wallace was the most powerful criminal in London. Billions of pounds flowed through his organisation each year. But now he's dead—and nobody knows who ordered the hit. With rivals everywhere, it's up to the impulsive Sean Wallace, with the help of the Dumani family headed by Ed Dumani to take his father's place. if the situation wasn't already dangerous enough, Sean's assumption of power causes ripples in the world of international crime. Perhaps the one man who might be able to help him and be his ally is Elliot Finch, who up until now, has been one of life's losers, a lowlife chancer with a mysterious interest in the Wallace family. But as the wind of fate blows, Elliot finds himself transported to the inner workings of the largest criminal organisation in London.
