American Marshal Raylan Givens was a modern law enforcement officer of the 19th century style who carried out his justice in a way that targeted criminals and caused him to differ from the boss of the Marshal's department. This conflict resulted in Givens being reassigned to the United States region, responsible for the small town where he grew up. He is an anachronism - a tough, gentle speaking gentleman who thinks his prey is charming but never gives in. Digging under his calm skin, you will find an angry man who grew up struggling in rural Kentucky. His father is an illegal person, and he knows better what kind of person he doesn't want to be, rather than his true self.
