Jake Walker, left the relative financial sanctuary, as an in-house security consultant, for a large tech firm, for the uncertainty of private practice. He had only been in practice a short time, when, what would probably turn out to be his biggest case, falls into his lap. The case involves drugs, kidnapping, and the chain of events, that can occur, when innocent people become entangled in them. His subsequent investigation, has him interacting with local law enforcement, in both Vancouver, and Washington State, as well as R.C.M.P. Early in the case, Jake brings in long time friend, Carla Rossi, and their professional relationship, grows to much more than that. The case leads them up and down the Pacific coast, on both sides of the border, as well as deep into the beautiful British Columbia interior, with some unexpected twists and turns, along the way.
