With the mine reopening imminent, Gowen decides to take drastic measures to make sure it stays closed. Elizabeth and Lucas struggle to communicate with each other. Lucas gets out of town to clear his head.
In police department files everywhere, there exist thousands of cases which have been officially closed, but not resolved to the complete satisfaction of either the police or the other parties involved. Among them are cases involving death by apparent suicide, accident or the so-called “natural causes,” which may not be as natural as they appear. But the pressures wrought on the department by new crimes has precluded as thorough an investigation of each incident as might have been desired, so these cases are written off, stamped closed and relegated to long-term storage, often to be forgotten. James Garner portrays Jim Rockford, a private investigator specializing in closed cases. In almost every instance, he has to deal with uncooperative police departments and a guilty person who must try to thwart his every move. Rockford is not a typical investigator. He has served a five year prison sentence for a crime which he was later cleared and pardoned. He knows how the criminal mind works, is not above fighting dirty and admits to a slight, but human cowardly streak. He has an irrepressibly wry sense of humor that comes to the fore, particularly when he finds himself in a highly dangerous situation. Starring James Garner, Noah Beery Jr. and Joe Santos.
Sayre Hoyle is a single and strikingly beautiful interior designer, enjoying success in San Francisco after running away from her Louisiana hometown, where her family still resides, a decade ago. When she learns of her brother’s unexpected death, Sayre returns to her small town to attend his funeral, and revisits the strained relationship she’s always had with her father, Huff Hoyle, a corrupt factory owner who lords over his employees - and most of the town - using fear and intimidation. There, Sayre meets Beck Merchant, Huff’s handsome attorney, who immediately takes an interest in her. Though it’s widely believed her brother died from an accidental gunshot wound, Sayre soon begins to suspect foul play, and turns the town upside down when she launches her own investigation, attempting to discover the truth behind his tragic passing. Uncovering a web of dark secrets, lies, cover ups and revenge plots, Sayre struggles with family dynamics, terrifying threats and local law-enforcement officials. Despite becoming more and more attracted to Beck - and maybe even falling in love - Sayre remains determined to prove her brother was murdered and bring his killer to justice.
