Theyll need to play nice with the local RCMP-easier said than done. After a run-in with an unusually combative and secretive inspector Penner and Millar know they need to find an ally within the ranks of the RCMP. Its obvious the rogue inspector knows something about Mark that led to his death but he seems to be more concerned with forcing Penner and Millar off the case than working together to solve it.

But the more they uncover the more sure they are of one thing-nothing is as it seems. And appearances can be deceiving.
