Retired Suffolk County cop Gus Murphy had a great marriage, two kids, a nice house, and the rest of his life ahead of him-- until, in the course of a single moment, his family is blown apart. Now divorced and working as a courtesy van driver for a run-down hotel, Gus is asked for help. The body of ex-con Tommy Delcamino's son was found battered in a wooded lot, yet the Suffolk County PD doesn't seem interested in pursuing the killers. As Gus investigates, he find that every-- his best friend; a gang enforcer; a Mafia capo, and even the police-- have something to hide, and are willing to go to extreme lengths to keep it hidden.
