An American podcast named Wallace Bryton makes his living by interviewing people. His dream becomes a Canadian nightmare when he visits Manitoba to interview a mysterious seafarer named Howard Howe, who has an incredible past with dark secrets.

Now, after getting to know that their friend is in danger, they fly to Canada looking for him. In Canada, a local detective puts them in touch with a former inspector who has been searching for Howard Howe for years.
The story proceeds with Howard turning Wallace into a walrus, with the narration of a story about a walrus named Tusk, which saved his life, and the way how Wallace friends Teddy and Allison manage to find the location of Howard.
