Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
An ambitious mounted policeman suffers a major career setback, but discovers his true calling in the treacherous Yukon Territory. Wade Grayling (Andrew Walker) was on his way to a promising career with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police when, on that fateful night in 1893, he was accused of dishonoring the Crown. Subsequently dispatched to survey the Yukon for a new garrison, Grayling arrives in the remote village of Merci, where he encounters a small group of Russian settlers. Upon noticing a body hanging from a nearby tree, Grayling realizes that Merci is a town in desperate need of law and order.
