But when her partner gets killed and her team comes under attack, Jo must form an unholy alliance with her arch-enemy: a money launderer-extraordinaire who's on the run from his most dangerous client."

Warner Bros. Television, home to Carroll's overall deal, is behind the project with Brownstone Productions' Elizabeth Banks and Max Handelman and Berlanti Productions' Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter also among the executive producers.
