Summary
Convicted bond forger, thief, and general menace-to-society Mike Ross escapes a medium security facility in upstate New York with just three months to go on a four year sentence. Supervisory Special Agent Harvey Specter is the FBI agent who caught him the first time-- and the only one who can catch him again.
Facing down another four-year sentence, as well as the budding mystery of whether and why his estranged girlfriend Jenny has disappeared, Mike offers his expertise and eidetic memory to help solve one of Harvey's white-collar cases, in exchange for information on Jenny's whereabouts. This initial consultation results in an unorthodox long-term work-release arrangement, where Mike and Harvey solve crimes, get each other in and out of life-threatening trouble, distrust the other's secret agendas (with damn good reason)-- and, of course, fall in love along the way.
Or: The Suits characters are set loose in a highly idiosyncratic interpretation of White Collar seasons 1-3, and hijinks ensue.
Long WIP, plot-heavy, slowest burn of your life. Background familiarity with White Collar is not mandatory, but highly encouraged.
