What is Ozark Law about?
For nine months of the year, the towns around central Missouri's Lake of the Ozarks are home to just a few thousand residents. Then summer arrives, millions of tourists pour in, and local law enforcement is stretched thin. Ozark Law rides along with the Lake Ozark and Osage Beach police departments on their daily patrols through that rush.
