Synopsis:
Carmen and Wayne Colson were in the wrong place at the wrong time. But now they’ve seen too much and Armand “The Blackbird” Degas, a half Ojibway Indian, half French Canadian hit man, doesn’t like loose ends. So after witnessing a failed extortion attempt, an innocent couple is on the run, and even the Witness Protection Program doesn’t seem to be enough to keep The Blackbird and his partner Richie Nix off their trail.
