Dooley's back in town after eight years in Mexico, and already he's making waves, helping a would-be rapist take a five-story shortcut, saving the criminal justice system a lot of trouble. Dooley used to be a cop, and he would still be one if the system hadn't failed him when it counted most; after taking the law into his own hands, Dooley had to take off. Now he wants to come home, but things have changed- people die, marriages fail, and friends get into trouble. Dooley's old partner Roy has a gambling problem, and a cop with a gambling problem means a cop with a mob problem. Dooley's going to try to make everything right again, but he's going to find that playing God is not as easy as it seems.
