A homicide detective hunts down his wife's killers while struggling
between his thirst for revenge and a twinge of conscience forbidding him
to take the law into his own hands. Homicide Detective Max Rupert never
fully accepted his wife's death, even when he believed that a reckless
hit-and-run driver was to blame. Haunted by memories both beautiful and
painful, he is plagued by feelings of unfinished business. When Max
learns that, in fact, Jenni was murdered, he must come to terms with
this new information--and determine what to do with it. Struggling to
balance his impulses as a vengeful husband with his obligations as a law
enforcement officer, Max devotes himself to relentlessly hunting down
those responsible. For most of his life, he has thought of himself as a
decent man. But now he's so consumed with anguish and thoughts of
retribution that he finds himself on the edge, questioning who he is and
what he stands for. On a frozen lake at the US-Canadian border, he
wrestles with decisions that could change his life forever, as his rage
threatens to turn him into the kind of person he has spent his entire
career bringing to justice.
