Agent Dwayne "King" Pride has a team out of New Orleans' NCIS field office that is investigating crimes that affect military personnel. He's a local guy with a drive to do the right thing and leads agents Christopher LaSalle -- who plays almost as hard as he works -- and former ATF agent Sonja Percy -- who finds being a part of a team an adjustment after years of working undercover assignments on her own. Eccentric coroner Dr. Loretta Wade supports them on cases. Together, they delve into the dark side of the colorful city that's a magnet for servicemen on leave.

Pride's teams uncover a sinister plot during the New Orleans Tricentennial Fleet Week celebration.

The team searches for a former Irish Republican Army bomb maker who was smuggled into the city; they are joined by agent Hannah Khoury, Pride's replacement during his medical leave; Pride considers a new position within the agency.

When a Navy commander's car is stolen with his baby inside, the team must determine if it was a targeted abduction.

LaSalle's brother, Cade, needs the team's help when he becomes a murder suspect -- and cannot remember what happened; LaSalle is determined to prove Cade's innocence, despite the wealth of evidence against him.
