Working the Trail

The RCMP have learned the hard way to expect the unexpected from Rory O'Ryan and Butch Hynes.

In May 1982, the two nineteen-year-olds lead the RCMP on a merry chase following a brazen armed robbery on Newfoundland's Southern Shore. They eluded capture for twelve days on foot, only to turn themselves in after they discovered they'd been backstabbed-someone had stolen their marijuana stash.

Now locked away in separate federal penitentiaries, split from each other and their beloved Southern Shore, Rory and Butch must fend for themselves as they try to distinguish friend from foe behind bars.

Meanwhile, Constable Jack Campbell is piecing together the clues of how Rory and Butch had used traditional footpaths along the coastline to evade the RCMP, confident that he'll get the last laugh over the two lads.
