With gritty determination he pursues the killers but is baffled by their motives. He guesses that Sofia is the key to unlocking the mystery. When the killers hunt down and murder one of their own Pacer is desperate to find Sofia before they do.

But real redemption comes from a chance lead and the resolution of dilemmas from his past.
