Synopsis by Michael Hastings

William Baldwin plays an undercover cop driven to desperation in this psychological thriller directed by former character actor Jeff Celentano. Baldwin plays Christian Box, a loose cannon detective who's still suffering from the loss of his wife when the film opens. The force reprimands Box for his hostile tendencies by assigning him a desk job. However, when his friend asks him to assist in a sting operation aimed at the man responsible for his wife's death, Box accepts in the single-minded hope that he can wreak some vengeance.
