Review
Cannon star William Conrad is the main attraction in this lame pilot for a TV series that never happened (surprise, surprise). He's a retired cop-turned-security chief who finds himself investigating a murder that is linked to another that took place 40 years before. He soon gets in over his head and realises he should have left the crimes buried - which is perhaps what the producers should have done with this movie.
