SERIES PREMIERE

Karl Alberg (Rossif Sutherland) moves to a quiet, coastal town to soothe a psyche that has been battered by big-city police work.

He’ll quickly learn that this gentle paradise has more than its share of secrets and will need to call upon all the skills that made him a world-class detective in solving the murders that, even in this seemingly idyllic setting, continue to wash up on his shore.

When a longtime resident of the town ends up bludgeoned to death in his own home, Alberg must determine if another longtime resident (guest star James Cromwell) is to blame.

Meanwhile, Alberg meets local librarian, Cassandra Lee (Kristin Kreuk), for a first date.
