Episode One: Figures In The Sand
Phoenix
A young mother of 3 children is murdered in her home, execution style. Across town, a popular Korean storeowner is brutally gunned down while chasing an armed robber. Detectives from the elite Phoenix Homicide Unit investigate these killings, and realize there’s more than what initially meets the eye. We follow their journey through the murky world of homicide, filled with secrets and lies as they try to uncover the awful truth behind the murders. Veteran detective Tommy Kulesa investigates the execution and tries to remains coolly detached: “I try not to get emotionally involved in the murder. If you do, you can become biased, and that’s bad for the investigation”.
Episode Two: Broken Windows
Indianapolis
From the prosperous downtown area of Indianapolis, the city spreads out to various neighborhoods, some wealthy, some desperately poor. The job of the Indianapolis Police Department is to serve them all, and prevent a chain reaction of crime that can begin from a broken window and lead to a drug den. Patrol officer Tracey Knecht works for the Neighborhood Resource Unit and follows the police footsteps of her father, uncle and husband. Marcus Kennedy is the Lead Investigator of a high profile homicide of a Banking Executive, working alongside his partner Homicide Detective Tony Finnel. As they begin gathering evidence, they reveal a secret life of the victim.
Episode Three: Charm City Blues
Baltimore
It’s a struggle to survive on the streets of Baltimore, whose ironic nickname is Charm City. A tough town with some tough police officers fighting to hold the line. Homicide Detective Dennis Raferty tracks down killers with the words ‘thou shalt not kill’ in his mind. He is called to a case in which a woman’s body has been found in the woods in the outskirts of town. Detective Maurice Moore is Raferty’s partner on the case. They are used to gun shot wounds, but this is different, it’s a stabbing, which they feel is more personal where someone had to get close and break flesh. The Flex Squad is a plain clothes unit trying to stop drug related homicide. Their aim is to put fear into the buyers, to remove the market from the sellers, and they do this by undercover work and sudden arrests on the streets.
