Sheriff Joanna Brady is juggling a precarious overload in both her personal and professional lives. About to be married, Joanna's facing a daughter turning twelve and going on twenty, a meddlesome mother, and in-laws arriving any day. The sudden death of her much-loved neighbor and handyman, Clayton Rhodes, creates further turmoil, leaving Joanna shocked, saddened, and the target of Clayton's irate and irrational daughter, who accuses the Sheriff's department of covering up a possible murder. Amidst the uproar, the death of an Indian woman in the nearby mountains, an apparent case of domestic violence, captures her full attention. Soon Joanna discovers that investigating family hostilities is leading her down a twisted trail of hatred, greed, and far-reaching consequences into a dangerous world where violence is the first response and long-buried secrets are a reason to kill...or die.
