Coldwater

Grieving a miscarriage, a young couple leave San Francisco for a quieter life in the Sacramento suburbs. Their hopes for a fresh start falter when a vacant house across the street fills with people they assume are squatters. The group of disruptive drug users plaguing the block turns out to have a grim past that extends well beyond their street, reaching the wealthiest and most influential men in California.

Calper Dennings, a fixer based in Los Angeles, is hired by a private client to calm things down before the disturbance spreads to the client's own interests. He has not finished the job when he finds himself caught up in the brutal underworld of a man who has unlimited means to ruin anyone who crosses him.
