The story

Danny Ciello is a narcotics detective who works in the Special Investigative Unit (SIU) of the NYPD. He and his fellow investigators are called "Princes of the City" because they are largely unsupervised and are given wide latitude to make cases against defendants. They are also involved in numerous illegal practices, such as skimming money from criminals and supplying informants with stolen drugs to resell.
