Alan Ball, skaberen af True Blood, har skabt dette spændende actiondrama, der følger Lucas Hood, en tidligere indsats, der ganske uventet bliver sherif i en lille by under sin søgen efter en kvinde, han sidst så 15 år tidligere, da han overgav sig til politiet, så hun kunne flygte under et juvelrøveri. Carrie Hopewell lever i byen Banshee under dække og er nu gift med den lokale anklager. Hun forsøger desperat at holde lav profil, indtil Lucas dukker op og vækker gamle følelser til live. Det hele bliver mere kompliceret af, at Banshee er gennemsyret af kriminalitet, og at amish gangsteren Kai Proctor brutalt er i færd med at opbygge et imperium baseret på stoffer, hasard og korruption. Med eksbokseren Sugar Bates hjælp holder Lucas stand over for Kai og hans bøller, og det lykkes han endda at præsentere byen for en dosis hårdhændet retfærdighed. Men Lucas' hang til røverier trækker ham og Carrie ind på en farlig løbebane, der bliver endnu farligere, da mr Rabbit, en gangster, de engang snød, opsporer dem med hævn i sinde.
