Former superstar insurance investigator Nate Ford (Timothy Hutton) had recovered millions for his former employer. Then his son got sick, and his own company wouldn’t pay the medical bills. Now his son is dead, his marriage is over and Ford’s a drunk.

He’s boozing at a bar when aeronautics company exec Victor Dubenich (Saul Rubinek) offers him a job: Steal back an airplane design that was stolen by a rival company, a company that is insured by Ford’s former employer.

With vengeance on his mind, Ford accepts the job and puts together a team of scam artists and thieves who all have their own talents. Eliot (Christian Kane), the muscle, is a weapons and fighting expert; awful actress Sophie Devereaux (Gina Bellman) is a great grifter; Alec (Aldis Hodge) knows his way around computers; and daredevil Parker (Beth Riesgraf) is an exemplary thief.

After their first adventure (“The Nigerian Job”) the team decides to take on one more job, and then another, for 13 episodes. They’ll steal from evil types who have cheated others and help those who can’t defend themselves.
