Policemen Bonaro and Madigan lose their guns to fugitive Barney Benesch. As compensation, the two NYC detectives are given a weekend to bring Benesch to justice. While Bonaro and Madigan follow up on various leads, Police Commissioner Russell goes about his duties, including attending functions, meeting with aggrieved relatives, and counseling the spouses of fallen officers.

This is a gritty, character-driven crime drama that feels like a weary sigh. It's a cynical look at the toll the job takes on cops and their marriages, with a tense, procedural undercurrent.
