Transcript

When a teenaged girl is killed during a suspected drive-by
shooting, the story is revealed as it is experienced by the
city's competing cops, paramedics, beat reporters and city officials. Detective Joel Stevens (Donnie Wahlberg) and his partner Bobby "Fearless" Smith (Mykelti Williamson) lead
the investigation, while veteran officer Ray Hechler (Gary Basaraba) and his partner Tom Turcotte (Jason Gedrick)
pursue a young African-American suspect. Meanwhile, politically savvy Deputy D.A. David McNorris (Neal McDonough) takes advantage of the tragedy to get some press for himself. Likewise, an ambitious reporter, Andrea Little (Nina Garbiras), tries to learn and leak the victim's identity.

"Not quite the Ganges, is it? Not really a river any more. Used to flood like a son of a bitch back when I was a boy. They paved it all over in the 50's. London's got the Thames, Paris' got the Seine, Vienna's got the Blue Danube. LA's got a concrete drainage ditch. That's all we got - it'll have to do."
