As the investigation continues, Knighthorse's personal life is shattered by the discovery of new evidence relating to his mother's unsolved murder, a murder dating back twenty years. Reeling from the discovery, a royally pissed off Jim Knighthorse sets out to bring two killers to justice. Let the ass kicking begin...
