Mike gets involved with a girl whose mother was murdered years ago and ends up helping to solve an old murder case—the very one in which Riel's partner was killed and Riel injured. Some outside the bounds sleuthing by Mike and Riel lets them both flush out the real killer this time—but not before the accused murderer almost kills them both.
