CINEMAX DRAMA SERIES "QUARRY" DEBUTS SEPT. 9

When U.S. Marine Mac Conway returns home to Memphis from Vietnam in 1972, he finds himself shunned by those he loves and demonized by the public he fought for. While struggling with the nightmarish experiences he witnessed and took part in, Conway is unwillingly drawn into a network of killing that spans the length of the Mississippi River.

Based on the bestselling books of Max Allan Collins ("The Road to Perdition"), the CINEMAX drama series QUARRY begins its eight-episode season FRIDAY, SEPT. 9 (10:00-11:15 p.m. ET/PT).
