In a time when parishioners bowed down at feet of priests in front of pulpits, an innocent boy is placed in foot of an altar that hides deep dark secrets. Under a cloak of darkness, and within the reach of the devil's grasp, young Peter Malone is brought up by a religious mother with a priestly plan. Blinded by the light of her spiritual salvation, Mother Mary Malone pushes the parameters of obedience at all cost, to achieve her spiritual reward. In this distorted world of fanatical worship, her seventh son of a seventh son is precariously placed in front of fallen clergy, who are cloaked in deception.On his preordained spiritual journey of life, young Peter Malone is pushed and pulled from the good and evil forces that surrounds his every step. Covered by the protection of three good priests, Peter is lifted with faith and filled with inspiration while growing into an adult. Watched closely by the peering eyes of evil three evil priests, Peter is confused by their disturbing deeds and conflicted by the holy leadership's reluctance to respond. As he stumbles towards his celibate life, Father Peter Malone finally searches for answers from his holy brothers, but only receives an empty chalice of silence.With the absence of answers and in a void of protection for the most vulnerable, the demented priests' prey on the weakest lambs. The wake of destruction perpetrated upon the fragile flock is too much for one broken boy to handle. That innocent soul is finally released from the pain by the ultimate sacrifice and becomes a catalyst for change within the church, and in the life of Father Peter Malone.

On the frigid coast of Newfoundland and Labrador, two families find themselves in the cold water of turbulent times. One, a human family, is immersed in a sea of misdirected emotions and the other, a killer whale family, is faced with the consequence of human interference. Both families are split apart on the rocks of life and heading straight for a collision course.Young Charlie Newhook and his clan were struggling fishermen, who lived under a continual cloud of brooding storms brought on by blinded emotions. The immaturity of a son to understand his family's situation and the inability by the father to express his feelings, introduces a perfect storm of discontent.Cultis, the renegade killer whale, is the product of humanity's quest for greed. Taken from the freedom of the sea, he becomes an uncontrollable force of terror, hell-bent on destroying everything in its path. Blinded by the thirst for revenge, blood is freely spilled on the path of reconciliation, in hopes of shedding the weight of antiquated ways. In a sea of uncertainty, the Newhook clan and the pod of killer whales finally collide, to find unexpected redemption upon the cold-blooded waters of Newfoundland.
