A tough cop, Joanna Brady gives no ground to lawbreakers, but the young widow gives her whole heart to her eleven-year-old daughter and to close friends who have seen her through the toughest of times. Now she's dealing with the multi-faceted mystery of a gruesome roadside killing, and it's complicated by some big time political maneuvering. And as the investigation gets sidetracked by ugly local land disputes, it takes some troubling twists and turns until Sheriff Brady finds herself wading through a murky morass of graft and political corruption that reaches into high places, and may have given someone more than ample reason to kill again.
