Grace
Hanadarko, a detective working for the Oklahoma City Police
Department’s Major Crimes division, is a mess. We’re barely into the
pilot episode before we discover that her married partner is just
one of Grace’s many bedmates and that she’s a heavy smoker and
drinker and a foul-mouthed, habitual liar. And that’s on her good
days. There are reasons for all of this, of course--turns out that
the death of her sister in the 1995 terrorist bombing that claimed
168 lives is just one of them--but it’s only when Grace commits a
particularly stupid and reckless act that the potential for
redemption appears in the form of Earl (Leon Rippy), a
tobacco-chewing good ol’ boy who just happens to be an angel. A
"last chance angel," to be exact, who suggests that if Grace will
simply turn herself over to God, good things will ensue. |
