Motivated by justice and looking for revenge, Lebarren decides to fight fire with fire, forcing Manthorne into a partnership with an ultimatum. As these two veteran crime fighters get closer to the truth, they too begin to unravel. If they are to restore peace in the streets and trust within the community, they will have to face the truths they each buried long ago.
