Meanwhile, Sam Rose — private investigator, former police detective and one-time best friend of Russell Foley — is hired to covertly investigate the killings. But after his best friend is murdered and his newfound love kidnapped, Sam has to race against time to not only save his own life, but the life of the woman he loves.
