After growing tired of working the streets of Philadelphia, Jonah moves to a small town in Western Pennsylvania in search of a quieter life. 

However, Jonah’s new life is threatened when the town and his family come under attack from serial killer Jurek Walter, played by Graham. As the search for Jurek’s last missing victim intensifies, Jonah sends his surrogate daughter, FBI Agent Saga Bauer, played by Beetz, to confront the dangerous killer.

The series also stars Bill Camp (Sound of Freedom, 12 Years a Slave, The Killing of a Sacred Deer), Rory Culkin (Signs, Mean Creek, You Can Count on Me), Chrissy Metz (This Is Us, American Horror Story, Breakthrough), Poorna Jagannathan (The Night Of, Never Have I Ever, Big Little Lies), and Gary Carr (21 Bridges, Bolden, Death in Paradise).
