In a post 9/11 Australia, a man becomes a monster. His life is turns upside down when a picnic in Hyde Park becomes the site for a grizzly massacre. He loses what he loves most and turns to what he does best...kill. And so, a lone man carves a bloody swathe of destruction through Sydney's criminal underground to get his revenge. This is the story of Matthew Mackowitz and his journey through the LONG COLD DARK.
