In the early 1990s, Boston was rife with violent criminals emboldened by local law enforcement agencies in which corruption and racism was the norm - and then it all changed in what was called the "Boston Miracle." In this fictional account, assistant district attorney Decourcy Ward comes from Brooklyn and forms an unlikely alliance with a corrupt yet venerated FBI veteran, Jackie Rohr. Together, they take on a family of armored car robbers in a case that grows to involve, and ultimately subvert, the entire criminal justice system of Boston. Why "City on a Hill"? and Why Boston?。山巅之城——人非圣贤。人物及复杂的执法机构。波士顿奇迹。这部剧注定受众范围很小。男主特别成功的塑造，撑起了一个很好看的剧集。后《真探》时代具有张力但却毫不做作的刑侦剧。。《山巅之城 City on a Hill 》---警政版的绿皮书。随便说说三个主角的演技。一集上瘾，爱死这种年代感十足的黑帮剧。
