A drama where prisoners who mysteriously vanished from Alcatraz decades ago reappear in the present.


Rebecca is a San Francisco police detective who discovers that a fingerprint found on a homicide victim belongs to a former Alcatraz prisoner who died decades in the past.

When she runs into resistance looking into her discovery, Rebecca turns to an expert on Alcatraz prison to help her piece together the mystery that is slowly unraveling.

Their investigation reveals that the prisoner in question is actually still alive and loose on the streets of San Francisco. What's more, is that he may not be the only prisoner from Alcatraz to reappear in the present.

it was a really interesting and thought provoking show, not some dumb reality show. What's the matter with the execs at fox, they must have had their traning at NBC, same level of incompetence. Bring the show back since it was the only show on fox worth watching.

Are they insane ? It was the only show I made a point of watching. No more reality shows ... I want to watch real actors in professional productions.

All this does is make me turn off the TV and surf the net. I am fed up watching shows only to have then cancelled by pea brained execs.

How can we save this show?! Surely there are enough fans to keep it on.

What the heck is wrong with you people? Canceling another good show? Did we need room for another reality show or something? Alcatraz is/was one of my favorite. Bring it back!!!

This was a good show. Very disappointed to see it go. It is the only show I watch on FOX. I guess I have no reason to watch FOX at all now.

I am so tires of mindless comedies and stupid reality shows being kept on, and shows like Alcatraz canceled. Either executives are not giving shows enough time to find an audience or we as a nation are getting more shallow in what we are watchin.
