Summary:
When the poster boy for an ex-gay group is murdered, the young man’s mother hires gay private investigator Donald Strachey (Chad Allen reprising his role in Third Man Out) to find the killer and bring him to justice. With verve, intelligence and style, this gay mystery series just keeps getting better and better.

Description:
Following up the terrific Third Man Out director Ron Oliver is back with the second installment in the Donald Strachey mystery series. Strachey is asked to investigate the suspicious death of Paul Haig by three different people; Haig's homophobic mother, his ex-lover, and the psychiatrist hired to "cure" him of his homosexuality. Our favorite gay detective is forced to go undercover inside an ex-gay therapy group when his newest client, the poster boy for this organization, winds up dead. Joining the already stellar cast of Shock to the System is Morgan Fairchild who has previously appeared in such shows as "Falcon Crest" and "Friends." Based on the popular novels by Richard Stevenson, The Donald Strachey mysteries are being made for HereTV! Chad Allen reprises his role as Strachey and Sebastian Spence returns as his loving partner, Timmy.
