Two tribal police officers check on a sudden death report, carefully establishing all the facts and probable causes. Sgt. Dale Austinson grew up in a small town, and his Mountie father has a positive influence on his career. With Cst. Len Isaac, they help to a female in distress at the Health Centre. Cst. Deborah Doss-Cody heads to an international indigenous cultural traditions leadership gathering. The St'at'imc chief believes the police have a cultural role as their nation’s peacekeepers.
