Out With the Sunset

There's nothing like jumping straight into the deep end.

Margie Patenaude is new in town and wasn't expecting to get called to a murder scene on her daughter's first day of school.

It's an ugly murder in a beautiful setting. How can Calgary's park-goers feel safe with a murderer still on the streets-or pathways? Margie and the team are on the case while at the same time she and her daughter try to acclimatize to the new city.

If she wants her coworkers to believe that she's not just a 'diversity hire, ' she needs to show them what she's made of and track this killer down.

Long Climb to the Top

Solving this case is going to be a long climb

Detective Pat is called out to another park homicide scene with disturbing similarities to the Fish Creek murder. Digging more deeply into the evidence reveals something even more worrisome. If her instincts are right, this case may hit a little too close to home.

Is she just imagining the connections? Or could her family be in real danger?

The clock is ticking as Detective Pat homes in on a killer.

Dark Water Under the Bridge

Parks Pat could be in deep water on this case!

Detective "Parks" Pat has made a name for herself in solving the Fish Creek and Glenbow Ranch murders, so she is the one they call when a body turns up in Ralph Klein Park. She would be happy for the confidence placed in her if it weren't for the fact that the body is in the water.

Detective Pat hates the water. She'll need to get over that if she is going to be able to investigate this case properly. Preferably before the rest of the department figures out her weakness. There is a killer out there to be caught. Somehow she'll have to get past her block to find him.
