Cold Lake Fishing

Synopsis: Exhausted from a demanding career, Roman Owen finds himself leading another gruesome investigation. The sinister and elusive killer leaves provocative clues that taunt the police and stir the community. Tensions rise as Roman's straight cut partner, Moussa, pries at his keen perception and seasoned intuition. Seemingly unfazed by the familiar nature of the murders, the not so altruistic detective indulges his tastes for alcohol and gambling until he stumbles upon an unsettling, personal connection to the case.

A misguided and disturbed fanatic, the product of a violent and broken childhood, a heroin addict struggling with sobriety, and a sexual deviant living two lives are some of the characters that comprise Cold Lake Fishing. Set in Edmonton, AB, this intense and thrilling story observes the frailty of human life, volatility of the mind, and dangers of prejudice.
