Davie Szyanski is a high school boy dealing with the recent passing of his mother. His father, Ron, a failed musician and athlete, having lost his job in the steel mills, took a job as a janitor in an exclusive prep school to provide Davie with a better education. It is there that they both experience a world which pushes them further apart. Davie becomes a compulsive liar to fit in and although lacking in talent, dreams of being a rock star. Together they deal with their losses and discover that the one thing they will always have is each other.

In the criminal justice system, sexually-based offenses are considered especially heinous. In New York City, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Victims Unit. These are their stories.

Laura Diamond, a brilliant NYPD homicide detective balances her “Columbo” day job with a crazy family life that includes two unruly twin boys and a soon-to-be ex-husband — also a cop — who just can't seem to sign the divorce papers. Between cleaning up after her boys and cleaning up the streets, she’d be the first to admit she has her “hot mess” moments in this hilariously authentic look at what it really means to be a “working mom” today. Somehow, she makes it all work with the help of her sexy and understanding partner, and things becomes even more complicated when her husband, ironically, becomes her boss at the precinct. For Laura, every day is a high-wire balancing act.
