Bust Up follows former romantic partners Deb Brighton and Mihi Renata, who are unexpectedly reunited after a decade apart and forced to work side‑by‑side as police officers in the small (fictional) town of Waitote, the garden gnome capital of Aotearoa. Together the pair must navigate a series of crimes are as bizarre as they are dangerous, and as the stakes escalate, so does the emotional tension, pushing Deb and Mihi to confront the unresolved feelings they've spent years trying to bury.
