Description

It’s new years eve and investigators are quick on the scene when they discover a retired police officer has been shot in his home. Theories start to emerge, but police don't quite yet have all the pieces to this puzzle. With no motive and only one person offering up an explanation, investigators are forced to reexamine everything they thought they know about the McDonnell family.
