A cop murders his family and then turns the gun on himself. In the shed
behind his cottage is a cache of weapons: Russian automatics, handguns,
9mils, .38s. You don’t need forensics to work out what’s gone wrong.
This is a cop with a side racket. Which gets the attention of Captain
Zara Dewane of the Internal Crime Unit. A single mom, known among cops
as the Jackal, what she uncovers about the family murder puts her in
the firing line.
There are cops running guns stolen from the police armoury. There are
cops selling guns to gangsters. Thing is, the money chain goes deep
into the policehierarchy. Even fingers the political bosses. Close her
down, comes the order from on high. Kill her, in other words.
Making Zara and her family targets. With only one way out.
