GreatGoodWatch scoreSummary
Supernatural crime thriller. What began as the documentary of a routine investigation by NYPD Internal Affairs Division Detective Jack Hunter, turned out to be anything but routine. A suspicious fire, evidence tampering, mysterious medical files, missing children. Is this case three years or twenty-three years old? The line blurs as the facts become frighteningly similar.
