Somebody wants Behn McAvoy dead. He's sure of this because he has just had to drown an assailant in his fishing hole. But who would want to kill an aging hockey player from a minor league team? Perhaps it is an ex-con in need of cash to fund a new scam or a self-adoring teammate who can parlay Behn's demise into an NHL career. Then there's his ex-wife, part of a bourbon-blurred NHL stint that Behn has spent a decade trying to forget. Finding out who is calling the shots would be easier if only the shots would stop coming.
