Description: Toronto at the close of 1999 is a time of change, but Detective Charlie McKelveys life is stuck on pause since the murder of his runaway son, Gavin. As his wife focuses on healing, McKelvey is burdened with guilt for his role in kicking the teen out of the family home and his inability to move the case to resolution despite his position on the police force. Obsessed with the stalled murder investigation and the role of a certain biker kingpin in the killing, McKelvey's behavior becomes increasingly unhinged. When unexpected illness forces his early retirement, the conditions are finally ripe for McKelvey to focus entirely on his plans for revenge.
