Matt Corbin is going through a rough patch in his life, rougher than his time in Vietnam. He finds himself a cuckold, betrayed by a wife of ten years with another man. Returning to his job as a homicide detective after his service time doesn't help, nor does having a batch of inadequate partners. It only compounds his trouble tenfold, making it that much heavier to carry. If it wouldn't be for his best friend, Paul Rice, and a new female partner, attractive and feisty, he would have eaten his gun by now. Then along comes a weird murder case where the bones of the victims are all that is left of them. It's enough to rock Corbin's boat and set him back a step.
