A former detective and 2nd generation NYPD, Maxine is no fan of Hayes Morrison and her family. Maxine's ex-brothers in blue distrust the CIU and see her involvement with it as a threat towards their fraternity. But Maxine understands that uncovering the truth, no matter who it impacts, is why she became a cop. This doesn't mean Maxine is free from her own past mistakes. And as she juggles her new job, being a mother, and living outside the thin blue line, her dark past may seep its way back into her life.

about conviction

Lawyer and former First Daughter Hayes Morrison (Hayley Atwell, Marvel's Agent Carter) is about to accept a job offered from her sexy nemesis, NY District Attorney Wayne Wallis, to avoid jail time for cocaine possession and avoid hurting her mother's Senate campaign. Working with his team at the new Conviction Integrity Unit will let her use her brilliant mind to turn over cases where there is credible suspicion of wrongful conviction, and give her a chance to turn things around with her high-powered political family.
