El detective Mac Taylor es un eficaz investigador del C.S.I. convencido de que todo está relacionado y las personas siempre tienen una historia que contar. Él y su compañera, la detective Stella Bonasera, lideran un equipo de expertos en el cambiante e inestable mundo de la ciudad de Nueva York. Estos dotados investigadores, que ven Nueva York bajo una luz única, siguen las pruebas al tiempo que reúnen pistas y eliminan dudas para, finalmente, resolver los casos. El cuerpo de un hombre de mediana edad aparece en el ascensor de un lujoso edificio del Upper East Side. En un primer momento, Mac Taylor y Aiden Burn no encuentran balas, ni restos de ADN, ninguna pista. Podría tratarse del crimen perfecto Mientras tanto, a unas pocas manzanas, Stella Bonasera y Danny Messer investigan el asesinato de una mujer protegida por el programa de testigos. Los agentes de la ley encargados de su seguridad aseguran que la víctima pasó la noche en su dormitorio del hotel y que la encontraron muerta por la mañana. El equipo C.S.I. de Nueva York deberá reunir las pruebas y resolver estos dos sorprendentes crímenes.

Detective Mac Taylor is a dedicated crime scene investigator who believes that everything is connected and everyone has a story. He and Detective Stella Bonasera lead a team of crack forensic experts through the gritty and kinetic world of New York City as they piece together clues and eliminate doubt to ultimately crack their cases.

A modest home in a suburban Queens neighborhood is the unlikely site of a grisly crime scene: a married couple and their daughter are found brutally murdered. Missing from the scene is the couple's young son, and Mac Taylor and Danny Messer soon uncover signs of a possible kidnapping. Can they find him before it's too late?

In a heavily Orthodox Jewish neighborhood in Brooklyn, the body of a devoutly religious man is found ritually displayed on the floor of his synagogue. Stella Bonasera and Aiden Burn initially suspect a fringe fundamentalist group that has had run-ins with the victim's congregation, but the group is led by a charismatic and antagonistic man who does everything he can to stonewall the team's investigation.

Two very different crimes, with one thing in common: CSI investigators who won't stop until they uncover the truth.

Days and nights of heavy spring rain threaten to cripple New York City. Neighborhoods are experiencing periodic blackouts. People have been reported electrocuted by fallen power lines. Flooding of some subway lines has stopped trains in their tracks. And in the midst of the deluge, the CSI team has three cases to solve.

Mac Taylor and Don Flack are on the trail of the perpetrator of a string of grisly murders with one thing in common: initials carved into the victims' bodies. When an unusual connection is found between the victims' lives, Mac realizes the killer isn't finished – not by a long shot.

Lindsay Monroe and Danny Messer investigate the death of a teacher at an exclusive Manhattan private school. The victim seems like everyone's favorite teacher on the surface – but they soon uncover a darker secret lurking beneath.

Stella Bonasera and Sheldon Hawkes are on-site at a suspicious building collapse when shifting rubble traps Hawkes in a deep pit with a mysterious stranger. Tensions rise as their oxygen starts to run out…

The intrepid members of New York's crack forensic team must race against time and the elements to bring three very different criminals to justice.
