1949 Los Angeles. Boxer turned mobster , who had been working in Chicago with some other mobster associates, has moved his operation to Los Angeles. He plans to take control of the city, in the process squeezing out all competition by whatever means, usually by violence. In being able to achieve this, Cohen has many in Los Angeles area authority in his back pocket. LAPD Chief Bill Parker asks Sgt. John OMara to assemble and lead an unofficial, off-the-books squad to deal with the Cohen problem. Parker makes this request specifically to OMara because of OMaras previous handling of some cases associated with Cohens operations. OMara and the squad are not to kill Cohen - which would only lead to someone else taking over - but rather disable all his operations in such a way no other mobster would consider coming in. Although she doesnt much like this assignment, OMaras loving and very pregnant wife, Connie, convinces her husband that he needs to recruit others with specialized skills as opposed to clones of himself which was his original thought, her advice all in an effort to make sure he comes home alive as a father at the end of it all. OMara will have to control the disparate group he has assembled in working toward their common goal. One issue he will have to deal with is the fact that one of his colleagues, Sgt. Jerry Wooters, who has lost his professional drive, has just embarked on affair with Cohens girlfriend, Grace Faraday, the two whose lives would be in danger if Cohen ever found out. As OMara and his team plow ahead without a clear plan, they may encounter problems in finding out who indeed is in Cohens back pocket, and as they cant ask for any assistance from anyone outside of the squad as being "unofficial". Nonetheless, they may be able to continue progressing to their end goal as long as Cohen does not know who they are, namely that they are LAPD undercover. If they are ever discovered, it may not only compromise their work, but may place their lives, and that of their loved ones, in mortal danger.
