Split the Middle

Michael Dooley, a drunken ex-con, has lost his wife, his child and everything he cares about. He thinks his life has hit rock bottom, but when he stumbles upon the scene of a horrific murder, he quickly realizes that the bottom is a lot farther down than he'd ever imagined. Split between the lower-class urban wasteland of the village of Broker and the spit and polished elegance of the city of Brittwood, the location of the body brings bitter ex-partners Payden Beck and Bryan Verrill back together as joint detectives on the case. Their darkly storied past makes for an explosive investigation that quickly turns into a maelstrom of suspicion, double-crosses and a mad dash to close the case by whatever means necessary. With the pressure building, the race to find the killer threatens to shred the lives of everyone it touches; bringing back secrets long since buried. From the very beginning, only one thing is ever certain: Everyone has something to lose.
