Set in Boston in the early 90s when the city was rife with violent criminals emboldened by local law enforcement agencies, in which corruption and racism was the norm, until it all suddenly changed. The drama is a fictional account of what was called the "Boston Miracle" and centers on an African-American District Attorney who comes in from Brooklyn advocating change and the unlikely alliance he forms with a corrupt yet venerated FBI veteran who is invested in maintaining the status quo. Together they take on a family of armored car robbers from Charlestown in a case that grows to encompass and eventually upend Boston's city-wide criminal justice system.

The trailer for this new drama shows that this new tale takes place in the early ’90s, charting the evolving relationship between an anti-corruption crusader assistant DA (Aldis Hodge, last seen developing a relationship with a Starfleet vessel’s AI ten millennia in the future) and the lauded FBI agent (Kevin Bacon, most recently seen on TV sensitively cradling a lamb) who’s skirting the law at every turn. When a series of armored car robberies erupts in the city’s Charlestown neighborhood, the two are forced to join forces to bring the crimes to an end.
The series’ pilot was directed by Michael Cuesta and written by creator Chuck MacLean. The rest of the EP team includes Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Jennifer Todd, Cuesta, James Mangold, Barry Levinson, along with series showrunner and “Homicide: Life on the Street” vet Tom Fontana. The series is slated to run ten one-hour episodes.
