Shortly after wrapping up the case of a murdered judge in the small community of Pineview, the discovery of a body on the beach during her early morning jog plunges lawyer Vivian Clarke into yet another murder mystery. Teaming up once again with Bruce Hathaway, an indigenous officer of the RCMP, who has now been promoted from detective to superintendent, they seek not only to solve the crime but also to plumb the connection it might have to a proposed waterfront development that threatens to destroy Pineview’s idyllic way of life. At the same time, they put their energy towards dealing with the increasing challenge of the Pineview youth who have been marginalized by the community. As they share these common objectives, the relationship between them develops more deeply into a bond of love and trust.
