Department Echo

DEPARTMENT ECHO finds Hawk as the first police officer on the scene in 1984 when Dr. David Richards is assassinated answering the door to his Old Town Alexandria, Virginia townhouse late at night. Despite the fact his estranged spouse was seeking custody of their children who lived with him, there was little evidence, and the case went cold for years. By 1990 Hawk has joined the FBI and was in command of an SWAT team when a bank robbery takedown went tragically wrong resulting in the death of a fellow agent. He finds himself “removed from the rolls of the Bureau,” and working boring cases as a Private Investigator. Hawk is then unexpectedly retained by a prominent attorney to solve the Dr. Richards murder once and for all, although who the client is remains a mystery.
