Descripción

Sonny Bonds puede respirar más o menos tranquilo. Bains por fin está muerto, y ahora está felizmente casado con Marie en un hermoso chalet (qué envidia dan las casas de las películas americanas), y siendo el jefe de policía de Lytton, repartiendo instrucciones todas las mañanas y coordinando a sus hombres de azul. Sin embargo, este día comienza de una forma rara: te encuentras patrullando y encontrándote a gente más loca y extraña de lo normal, con más situaciones de peligro que lo acostumbrado, y una oficial empieza a darte problemas.

Es una señal de lo que está por venir: dos hombres intentan atracar a tu mujer a la salida del trabajo, y aunque no la llegan a matar, dejan a Marie en estado de coma. ¿Quiénes eran esos hombres? ¿Qué querían realmente? ¿No es una pauta en una serie de asesinatos en Lytton? Sonny Bonds, llevado por la adrenalina que alienta la venganza, llegará hasta el final para averiguar quién ha sido el desgraciado que se ha cruzado en su vida, y se vengará. Aunque la investigación será arriesgada hasta extremos casi mortales un buen número de veces.

Sonny Bonds: Sonny and his wife Marie are still on a "honeymoon high" from their wedding a few years back. The two have a beautiful new home, and Sonny was promoted to detective sergeant at the Lytton Police Department. However, overburdened as the department is, he's been assigned to Traffic Division for a bit. After a long working day, Sonny is dispatched to an assault at the Oak Tree Mall. It turns out that it was his wife who got viciously stabbed. As Marie lies in a coma, Sonny is assigned to homicide to investigate the crime. Soon he discovers multiple cases of similar assaults which are linked to a cult and cocaine dealers. Whoever they are, Sonny is determined to find and bring justice to those who tried to murder his wife. Sonny is played by Chris Barnes. Marie Wilkans (Marie Bonds): Sonny's wife, Marie, has got a good job at the Oak Tree Mall. After one working day, Marie gets visciously assaulted by two men as she approaches her car. One man held her while the other stabbed her. As Marie screamed, her attackers fled before being noticed by others. While Marie could have easily died, she nonetheless lies in a coma at the hospital. The doctor says only Sonny can wake her again with plenty of care, love and attention. Marie is played by Cheri Loyd. Pat Morales: Pat Morales, like Sonny, works at homicide but temporarily fills in for the traffic division. Sonny is her superior. Unfortunately she has problems with authority and easily looses her temper, as becomes clear from how she handles people on the street. Sonny therefore is not very pleased when the captain makes her his partner to investigate Marie's assault and other related murders. As they work together, Sonny grows suspicious about her behaviour - especially about the numerous phonecalls she makes. A look at her psychological file gives even more reason for concern. When one day Sonny finds evidence of a crime stashed in her locker, he informs internal affairs about it. Who is Pat Morales really? Pat is played Patty Lang. Capitán Tate: Captain Tate is in charge of the Lytton Police Department and therefore Sonny's superior. After Marie gets assaulted, the captain reassigns Sonny to homicide, since he knows that is the only thing Sonny has on his mind. He also provides a murder case which is eerily similar to the assault on Marie, and assigns Pat Morales to be his partner in the investigation. When Sonny grows sufficiently suspicious about Morales and finds evidence stashed away in her locker, he reports it to the captain who initiates an internal investigation. Captain Tate is played by Robert Tapp. Daryle Smith: Mr. Smith is the booking officer at the Lytton Police Department. When Sonny brings in a lunatic and a drunk, Mr. Smith takes care of them and holds their personal possessions. Mr. Smith is played by Craig Simmons. Ms. Gibbs: Whenever Sonny or other officers, find evidence to a crime, such as blood samples, jewelry, paint samples, and much more, they bring it to miss Gibbs the evidence officer. She registers the items and makes sure they are properly processed to find more clues about the committed crimes. Miss Gibbs is played by Cindy Walker.
Dr. Sidney Aimes: Sidney is the psychologist at the Lytton Police Department. He doesn't allow people to look into his patients' files, but one time Sonny manages to have a peek at Pat Morales file as Sidney is not in his office. And when Sonny sees Sidney's conclusion about Pat, he is very much alarmed about it. Sonny also shows Sidney the military file of Michael Bains to get a psychological profile on the brother of Jesse whom Sonny killed in Police Quest 2. Sidney Aimes is played by Corey Cole. Mike Downs: Mike is the head technician of the computer department at the Lytton Police Department, the kind of geek who can't be silent for a minute. He provides a computer access card to Sonny and also provides the police force with technical equipment, such as a tracker, though he hates it when he doesn't get it back in a timely manner. Mike is played by John Hartin. Kevin Miller: Kevin is one of the older cops on the force, a real veteran. When Sonny does not initiate the daily meeting in a timely manner, Kevin will do it for him, mocking Sonny for not being able to lead a meeting. Kevin is played by Roger Griffith. C.J. Stumps: Mr Stumps is the janitor at the Lytton Police department, though you can only find him near the locker rooms. He is a hard worker and good-natured man though, but he won't let Sonny in the women's locker room. Surely making a bit of a mess in the men's locker room can keep him distracted for a while? Mr. Stumps is played by Bill Davis Jr. Juez Mildred Simpson: Mildred Simpson is the judge at the case between Sonny and Mr. Ruiz. Ruiz was blocking traffic in the passing lane and objected to the fine sonny gave him. Sonny however can easily proof with his calibration chart that he made the right decision, and therefore wins the case.

She will give it to him provided that he can present sufficient material to convince her to sign it. Judge Simpson is played by Tara Ryan.

He asks Sonny about how and why he fined Mr. Ruiz and presents Sonny's calibration chart as evidence to easily win the case. Mr. Cannon is played by Sierra founder and CEO Ken Williams.

Mr. Meyer is played by Chris Garski. Juan José Ruiz: Juan was driving on the passing lane of the freeway at 35mph, blocking all traffic. So evidently Sonny pulled him over and gave him a ticket. The man with the lowered car with a fancy paint job didn't like that and took Sonny to the court. Of course since Sonny had hard evidence and Juan only had his word, the case was easily won in Sonny's favor. Juan is played by George Esparza.
