The Plot of the Series City on a Hill:

The series occurs in Boston in the early 1990s, when the city is full of violent criminals, driven by local law enforcement. Where corruption, ethnicity, and “taking to the streets” become the norm – until suddenly everything changes. This is a fictional story about what is known as the Boston Miracle.

The agent of change is District Attorney Decurie Ward (Aldis Hodge), originally from Brooklyn and has an extraordinary alliance with Jackie Rohr (Kevin Bacon), a corrupt but respected FBI veteran who has profoundly and heavily invested in maintaining the status quo.

Together, they meet Charlestown’s armored car robber family (Jonathan Tucker, Mark O’Brien, and Jimmy Cummings) in a case involving the Boston City Whole Criminal Justice System.
