Having left Kentucky over a decade ago, Deputy U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens now lives in Miami, balancing his work life with being a part-time father of a 15-year-old girl.

After a chance encounter on a desolate Florida highway leads him to Detroit, Raylan crosses paths with Clement Mansell, aka The Oklahoma Wildman, a violent, sociopathic desperado. Mansell's lawyer has every intention of representing her client, even as she finds herself caught in between a cop and a criminal.
