Besides his marriage woes continuing, Danny's detective work at the Akin Police Department has turned extremely complicated. There are complex cases that are proving impossible to solve, there's a captain above him trying to run him off, and he learns there's a prior detective (much like him) who was killed under mysterious circumstances just a few years before.
The true -- and frightening -- extent of the corruption in Akin, Tennessee is a lot to take in, even for a man of Danny's caliber. He's headed toward trouble that could cost him his life if he doesn't back down soon.
But is it already too late for Danny to run?
