The network shared a trailer for the drama series Friday featuring Jeff Daniels as Del Harris, a police chief living in Buell, a fictional small Pennsylvania steel town.
The preview shows Harris (Daniels) investigate a murder that rocks his small town. Billy (Alex Neustaedter), the son of Harris’ love Grace Poe (Maura Tierney), becomes a suspect.
