The series focus on the work of FBI’s Fugitive Task Force which relentlessly tracks and captures the notorious and dangerous criminals on the Bureau’s most wanted list. Overseeing the team is Jess LaCroix, a seasoned, enigmatic agent at the top of his game who uses his expert profiling skills to help apprehend the most dangerous criminals. Throughout Season 1, the team includes agents Sheryll Barnes, a ex-NYPD detective with a degree in behavioral psych who serves as the team’s second in command; Kenny Crosby, an army vet Jess has taken under his wing; Hana Gibson, the team's intelligence analyst; and Clinton Skye, one of the most experienced field agents on the team and the brother of Jess's deceased wife.
In season 2, Skye is put on special assignment to the Bureau of Indian Affairs and is eventually replaced by Special Agent Ivan Ortiz, a former LAPD gang officer with street cop instincts. In the season 3 premiere, Crosby is put on medical leave (after being wounded by a former Army comrade during an investigation) and replaced by Special Agent Kristin Gaines, a rising star from the FBI's Miami office. Later, in the second half of season 3, LaCroix is shot and killed by a fugitive, which devastates the rest of the team. He is eventually replaced by Supervisory Special Agent Remy Scott - fresh off a multi-year stint with the FBI's Las Vegas field team - as team leader.
