Premise

The series centers on the inner workings of the New York City field office criminal division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), where the personnel work to ensure the safety of New York City and its citizens.

Born into a multi-generational law enforcement family, Special Agent Maggie Bell commits deeply to the people she works with as well as those she protects. Her partner is Special Agent Omar Adom "O. A." Zidan, a West Point graduate from Queens [14] who spent two years undercover for the DEA before being cherry-picked by the FBI. Other members of the office include Special Agent-in-Charge, Dana Mosier; Assistant Special Agent-in-Charge, Jubal Valentine; and Analyst, Kristen Chazal. Together, the team of agents investigate cases including terrorism, organized crime, and counterintelligence. [15]

In Season 2, Stuart Scola joins the team and is partnered with Kristen, who transitions into field work at the same time. Isobel Castille takes Mosier's place as team supervisor following the latter's retirement.

In Season 3, Kristen transfers to Dallas, Texas, and is replaced by Tiffany Wallace, a former New York Police Department officer and White Collar Division Special Agent. Tiffany later departs the bureau and moves to Georgia at the start of Season 7 after being burned out due a long-running case from the previous season.
