重任在肩 第一季

在一次反恐行动中，由于情报失误，英国特警部队误杀了一名怀抱孩子的中东移民，负责行动队的首长决定将这宗丑闻彻底抹去，遂找来了知道真相的队员们统一口径，录制假口供。刑侦队长史蒂夫（马丁·康普斯顿 Martin Compston 饰）对于首长的决定十分不满，于是辞去了职务，被调往隶属于英国反贪署的秘密行动组。 　　史蒂夫的任务是调查一位名为托尼（连尼·詹姆斯 Lennie James 饰）的侦缉总督察，他因为涉嫌贪污而被列入了监视的名单。史蒂夫和女警探凯特（薇琪·麦克卢尔 Vicky McClure 饰）一同打入了托尼所领导的小组内部，史蒂夫却意外的发现，凯特还有另外一重秘密的身份。Following one multi-stranded investigation over five hours, Line of Duty sees Detective Sergeant Steve Arnott transferred to AC-12, an anti-corruption unit, after a mistaken shooting during a counter-terrorist operation. Alongside Detective Constable Kate Fleming , they are assigned to lead an investigation into the alleged corruption by a popular and successful officer, Detective Chief Inspector Tony Gates. While Gates cleverly manipulates his unit's figures, DS Arnott questions whether Gates is being made a scapegoat for a culture of institutionalized spin, or is guilty of darker corruption.
