What Season 3 of Burn Notice

Michael Westen is an intelligence agent who, in the middle of a mission overseas, learns that he has been burned. Without explanation, the agency removes him from service and sends him back to Miami, his hometown, with no bank accounts, no contacts and no official past. Watched and trapped in the city, he makes a living as an unlicensed detective taking on small-time clients. Together with his ex-girlfriend Fiona Glenanne and his friend Sam Axe, he wants to find out who betrayed him and why. His mother, Madeline, joins the team, and each job brings him closer to the person responsible. Miami police detectives are closely following the case.
