Once a Week for Life, OWFL I: When a New York crime family and City Hall collide, a moral masochist NYPD lieutenant must choose: die by his own code—or compromise and live as something worse.
NYPD Lieutenant Adam Galanis is a hard-edged fugitive hunter, both respected and feared on the streets and within the department. Haunted by addiction, PTSD, the death of his partner, and the ghosts of childhood combat buddies he once led, Adam emerges as a bombastic, often antisocial figure who nonetheless becomes the lone incorruptible force in New York City as crime families close ranks against him. When a sting backfires, Adam takes the fight to the Castellazzo family. Diablo Sanchez escapes custody, leaving two U.S. Marshals dead and sparking a relentless manhunt. In the shadows, Capo Matteo Giambrone maneuvers, while dirty cops and City Hall interference conspire to bring Adam down. Adam presses his partner Sgt. Duffy to delay retirement and leaning on his complicated father Theo, Adam struggles to hold the line as betrayal and blood debts close in. With his life unraveling and his marriage collapsing, he’s drawn to Eve Fecundo Lombardi, a strong-willed, seductive ER nurse offering both comfort and temptation.
