Each episode moves across three timelines of one heist: the 12 months of planning, the 12 hours of the job and the 12 days after it. Mackie plays a disgraced FBI agent and Dornan plays an American career criminal, and the two play a game of cat and mouse across Europe. At the center is a daring raid on a bank vault deep beneath the streets of Zurich.
Dudi Appleton and Jim Keeble created the series. Kari Skogland directs several episodes, including the pilot, and is an executive producer. Paramount Television Studios and Anonymous Content produce it for Apple TV.
