Plot
Ryder Hart (Peter Weller) is a private investigator and former police officer who is down on his luck and drinks too much. His estranged wife Anita (Alexandra Paul) runs a bar and restaurant called the Sunset Grill. Anita is romantically involved with Jeff Carruthers (Michael Anderson, Jr.), a Los Angeles police detective who formerly worked with Hart.
