A perfect wife and a perfect life... 
The ruggedly handsome "Mac" McRyan had a prestigious job at a top law firm, a beautiful home, and a gorgeous wife that all made for an ideal life. But then life gets in the way and changes course in ways never imagined.  For Mac, a family tragedy meant forgoing a lucrative legal career for one in the "family business" - the St. Paul Police Department. After four years as a cop, the ruggedly handsome Mac crosses the crime scene tape for the first time as a homicide detective. The brutal back-alley murder of a young trial lawyer from a high profile law firm doesn't add up. In an emotionally charged investigation full of unexpected twists and turns, Mac will need to follow a convoluted trail of evidence, secrets, and hidden agendas to help solve a murder mystery that is his FIRST CASE.
