County Line is an American action Western film which was released in 2018. The film aired on INSP on May 5, 2018.[4] Two sequels were announced with the first set to air in 2022.
Plot
County Line follows Alden Rockwell, a former sheriff played by Tom Wopat. The sheriff is left with many unanswered questions when his best friend, Clint Thorne, a fellow sheriff in a neighboring county is gunned down. Jeff Fahey stars as the gunned down Sheriff Thorne.[4]
Following his death an investigation is opened by Grant Goodeve's character, Sheriff Preston. The investigation fails to follow any logical route and ultimately results in the case going cold, with some suggesting Sheriff Preston is turning a blind eye to the murder.[4]
Alden refuses to accept that the death of his friend and fellow sheriff cannot be solved, and takes matters into his own hands.[4]
