Black Badge

Detroit doesn't forgive. It keeps receipts. On a brutal winter night, Detective Mack Mackenzie catches the call every cop dreads: two bodies in a derelict building — a gangbanger and a rookie officer, dead in the same room. As the bodies stack up and the department starts watching its own, Mack follows a thread that runs from the city's darkest corners straight into the heart of the badge he wears.
