Dark Topic Cold.May 10th 1973. A masked man brandishing a pistol and a rifle, enters the CIBC (Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce) in downtown Kenora, Ontario. A dead man’s switch that looks more like a duck whistle, is clenched between his teeth. The switch is connected to a bag slung over his shoulder which he claims to contain a bomb.

A Friday afternoon in the quaint village of Richfield Wisconsin. A young woman attempting to walk her dog through a nature park is accosted by a would be rapist who jumps out from behind a van in the secluded spots parking area.
