The Shield

ÖZET

The Strike Team has been disbanded under an avalanche of corruption charges and Vic's future is in doubt. The election that sends Aceveda from the chaos of the Barn into the politically turbulent waters of City Hall leaves in his place Monica Rawlings, a hardened veteran who is determined to master the assignment. Her relationship with Vic is tested by a murder case that exposes racial tensions and leads to the arrest of community activist and ex-con Antwon Mitchell. With Aceveda undermining her every move, Monica's aggressive crime-fighting tactics only end up fueling the hostilities that already exist in Farmington. So, as an unholy alliance with Antwon forces Shane to help the gangster wield power from prison, and Aceveda's career in City Hall is threatened by a prostitute, Vic jumps at the chance to salvage his future when the Strike Team is reconstituted to solve a cop killing.
