Marshal and part-time father of a 15-year-old girl. Here's the official synopsis from FX: "Having left the hollers of Kentucky fifteen years ago, Raylan Givens now lives in Miami, a walking anachronism balancing his life as a U.S. But since Justified: City Primeval replaces Cruz with Givens, the setup is different, with Givens and his daughter ending up in Detroit due to some machinations we won't spoil here.
