It looks like Fox is ready to give a brand-new police/crime drama with a lesbian lead a shot after Deadline reports it “has given a script commitment plus penalty” to it. The show, from Hell on Wheels creators Tony Gayton and Joe Gayton, is tentatively called The Dime and would be groundbreaking in that its main character is set to be a lesbian.

Directed by Matt Reeves, the show would follow Brooklyn cop Betty Rhyzyck who is described as “…a tough-as-nails firebrand who moves with her girlfriend to Dallas to lead a group of detectives.”

The show is based on a novel by the same name by Kathleen Kent.
