In the police world, a file is either “hot” or “cold”. For a murder to be considered “hot”, one must have a warm body and a suspect, opportunity and a motive, evidence and the will to prosecute. Without these, the file is passed down to the Cold Squad.
One of the most intriguing police dramas on the air, Cold Squad focuses on a team of police detectives who have the unenviable task of solving old, or “cold” murder cases. Fortunately, innovative forensic technology, DNA evidence and advances in psychological profiling, along with the passage of time, can shed new light on old facts.
With the rising of Cold Squad's profile, and the introduction of a larger, province-wide task force comes a battle of wills for jurisdiction over the squad. Determined to maintain control of the unit she put on the map, Sergeant Ali McCormick (Julie Stewart), faces off with incoming Detective Frank Coscarella (Stephen McHattie). What makes this unlikely pair is their compassion for the victims and their obsession to bring killers to justice.
