While on assignment, agent MICHAEL WESTEN (Jeffrey Donovan) gets a BURN NOTICE and becomes untouchable.
Having no idea what or who triggered his demise, Michael returns to his hometown of Miami with his ex-girlfriend FIONA GLENANNE (Gabrielle Anwar), determined to find out the reason for his sudden termination.
Unable to utilize his normal contacts and needing to stay under the spy network radar, he puts his Special Ops training to use to help those who the police can’t or won’t, in order to fund his ongoing personal investigation.
Sam Axe (Bruce Campbell), our favorite washed-up military intelligence muscle; and Michael’s mother Madeline (Emmy Award® winner Sharon Gless), who is one tough cookie herself complete Michael's team trying to figure out the mystery behind Michael’s burn notice.
