This show centers around a man/beast named Vincent who lives in a secret underground tunnel community in New York City. He and many others live in this elaborate community and they take in others who have lost their way or been abandoned. The leader of the community is Jacob, who they all call Father. The first two seasons center around Vincent's relationship with district attorney Catherine Chandler. Catherine met Vincent when she was rescued by him after being attacked.
