Strap on your weapon and try to survive another day on the streets. It's the same on both sides of the law. If you want to make it to the top, you've got to learn the ropes, outwit the competition and take down your enemies. Welcome to the war between the FBI and organized crime. One side enforces the law as the other breaks it, but brains, brawn and intimidation are often the tools of both trades. The Richmond-based Malloy Crime Syndicate is run by Jonah Malloy, a charismatic but dangerous father figure. The Richmond FBI branch has its own dynamic leader in Special Agent-In-Charge Lisa Cohen. Like any business, they must justify operations and produce results while wrangling lieutenants who are as flawed as they are hard-working. These titanic organizations work side-by-side, completely aware of each other, but are unable and often unwilling to completely destroy the enemy that stands in their way.

Line of Fire stars Leslie Hope (24) as FBI agent Lisa Cohen and Oscar-nominee David Paymer (The Commish) as crime boss Jonah Malloy. Jeffrey D. Sams (Wasteland) will play the role of Todd Stevens, as an FBI agent. The show was simulcast in HDTV.

This fast-paced drama is a gritty look at two very dangerous and different worlds that viewers have only imagined.
