Director: Hilary Weisman Graham

Justin Hartley leads this contemporary manhunt drama as a solitary reward-seeker whose gift for finding the lost quietly doubles as a way of running from his own history.

What is Tracker about?

Colter Shaw earns his living off other people's worst days, driving a converted camper from one American town to the next wherever a reward has been posted for a missing person or an unsolved case. Local police tolerate him because he works fast and stays out of their way; the families who hire him need someone who won't give up until there's an answer. Every stop forces him to read strangers quickly — the gaps in a story, the small physical details a scene leaves behind — and turn that reading into a rescue before time runs out. Underneath the case-of-the-week structure sits a longer thread about Shaw's own family, a history of loss that shaped why a man with no fixed address spends his life searching for other people's missing pieces. As the season builds, an old file resurfaces that unsettles everything he believed about his father's death, and the search for strangers slowly turns into a search for the truth about himself.

Cast & crew

Justin Hartley carries nearly every scene as Shaw, playing competence without swagger — a man far more comfortable reading a stranger's kitchen than talking about his own life. Robin Weigert, Abby McEnany, Eric Graise and Fiona Rene fill out the small support network that keeps him funded, fed, and occasionally talked out of reckless decisions.

Context & significance

Tracker draws its central character from Jeffery Deaver's Colter Shaw novels, trading the books' shifting regional settings for a season-long tour through small-town America, and the show leans into that geography — diners, motels, family farms — as much as its procedural mechanics. Hilary Weisman Graham built the series for viewers who still want a self-contained mystery every week, which is part of why it found a large audience quickly: newcomers can join mid-season without missing anything essential, while the buried family mystery rewards those who stay for the full run.

Where & how to watch

Tracker is available on K-Time with Farsi dubbing and subtitles, and the page itself is free to read without an account — watching the episodes only needs a free K-Time login.
