New leads emerge in the Fallen Angel case. And in the heart of Atlanta's wealthiest neighborhood, a man is brutally beaten and shot to death.
Hot Sun, Cold Blood
On the one-year anniversary of Bridget Shiel's brutal murder, with no progress on finding her killer, Lowe organizes a vigil and canvass to try and generate new leads and give her family some resolution. A tip leads detectives on a wild hunt to try and find her killer. The best evidence they have is the hope of getting a DNA match. Meanwhile, Det. Zimbrick gets a DNA match on a 16-year-old cold case. He and Quinn head to San Francisco where the suspect is incarcerated and get a series of extraordinarily lucky breaks along the way.
The Cooler
A DNA hit in the Bridget Shiel murder investigation identifies a compelling new suspect who was recently imprisoned for a double homicide - Christopher Spencer. Lowe investigates Spencer's background, criminal history and cell phone records in the wake of Bridget's murder, sending him to Arkansas to speak with Spencer's family, and ultimately to the prison where Spencer is held to interview him face-to-face. Meanwhile, Benton investigates the death of a young man, shot and killed while selling water on a hot summer day.

Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
