A limited television series adaptation of the novel, Justified: City Primeval, was released in 2023. The story was repurposed as a spinoff of the TV series Justified and features Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant) instead of the novel's protagonist, Raymond Cruz.[1] However, Cruz is included as a minor character, portrayed by Paul Calderón who reprises his role from another adaptation of a novel written by Leonard, Out of Sight (1998).

Plot summary

"Oklahoma Wildman" Clement Mansell, having already gotten away with murder once, kills a crooked Detroit judge. Homicide Detective Raymond Cruz pursues him. When Mansell tries to extort money from Skender Lulgjaraj, an Albanian criminal, Cruz maneuvers Mansell into a showdown.
