Charged with misconduct in a high-profile solicitation of
murder case, Scully is forced to resign from the LAPD of
face criminal prosecution. His wife Alexa leaves him,
seeking a divorce for his alleged dalliance with the accused
in the case, a well-known Hollywood actress. His son,
Chooch, horrified by these events, won’t speak to
him.
In order to make a living, Scully seeks
employment where he can: the Haven Park, California PD.
Haven Park is a small, incorporated city near downtown LA,
populated largely by illegal immigrants. The department is
known for its corruption, in effect the Mayor’s personal
goon squad and collection agency. As Shane gets involved, he
learns that things are rarely what they seem. Relentlessly
harassed by an over-zealous FBI agent, the beautiful Ophelia
Love, and under the constant, sometimes violent, extremely
paranoid scrutiny of his new comrades-at-arms, Shane finds
that Alex may be the only one who can get him out of this
new mess alive. But is she willing to?
