'Reef Break': Poppy Montgomery to star in ABC's upcoming action-packed crime drama

Poppy Montgomery will star as Cat, the woman with an "islane-instinct" for crime, who uses her natural talent to hunt down enemies.

ABC has given a straight-to-series order for 'Reef Break', a new crime drama starring Poppy Montgomery, produced by ABC in partnership with M6. Montgomery will also executive produce the series, which is based on her idea, along with Ken Sanzel, who will write the series as well as serve as showrunner.

'Reef Break' will tell the story of Cat Chambers, a thief-turned-fixer for the governor of a stunning and seductive Pacific Island paradise. As an impulsive, reckless and irresistible woman, Cat's less-than-perfect past gives her an instinctive gift for understanding crime and criminals as she becomes enmeshed in fast-paced, high octane adventures and island intrigue. Cat’s reappearance also makes waves for old friends, enemies, and lovers, including an FBI agent ex-husband, her imprisoned crime boss and a police detective lover who is in over his head.
