Synopsis: Someone’s got Terry McCaleb’s number. A veteran FBI profiler, McCaleb (CLINT EASTWOOD) is unrelenting in his pursuit of justice and unequalled in his success at tracking and catching murderers.... Someone’s got Terry McCaleb’s number. A veteran FBI profiler, McCaleb (CLINT EASTWOOD) is unrelenting in his pursuit of justice and unequalled in his success at tracking and catching murderers.

But as he closes in on his latest adversary – a psychopath dubbed “The Code Killer” by the media – McCaleb is felled by a massive heart attack and forced into early retirement.

Two years later, a beautiful stranger (WANDA De JESÚS) reveals a secret that compels McCaleb to re-examine his recovery: his life was saved by someone else’s death – the victim of a murder that remains unsolved.

Against the advice of his cardiologist (ANJELICA HUSTON) and with the help of an eager neighbor (JEFF DANIELS), McCaleb literally puts his life on the line to track down a murderer who has forced him to take this case personally.

He’s a heartbeat away from catching the killer.

Warner Bros. Pictures presents the suspense thriller Blood Work, a Malpaso Production starring CLINT EASTWOOD, JEFF DANIELS, WANDA De JESÚS, TINA LIFFORD, PAUL RODRIGUEZ, DYLAN WALSH and ANJELICA HUSTON.

Produced and directed by CLINT EASTWOOD from a screenplay by BRIAN HELGELAND, based on the best selling novel by MICHAEL CONNELLY, the film is executive produced by ROBERT LORENZ. The co-producer is JUDIE G. HOYT.

The editor is JOEL COX; the production designer is HENRY BUMSTEAD; the director of photography is TOM STERN; and the music is composed by LENNIE NIEHAUS.

Blood Work will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, an AOL Time Warner Company.
