She was accused of murder. The whole town wanted her ruined. But Kate Prentice refused to run. After the killing of Mormon Joe, suspicion falls hard on the one person left standing-his tough, stubborn niece Kate. The bankers close in, neighbors turn cold, and whispers follow her everywhere she rides. But Kate isn't the kind to break under pressure. While she fights to keep the sheep ranch alive and prove her innocence, a small band of unlikely allies begins to uncover troubling truths in the town of Prouty. Deputy Lingle refuses to let the case die, Teeters keeps digging where others won't, and a trail of evidence slowly begins to point in a very different direction. Someone in Prouty knows what really happened the night Mormon Joe died. And the closer Kate gets to the truth, the more dangerous the truth becomes. In a country where reputations are made on grit and courage, one young woman must stand alone against lies, power, and the threat of losing everything.
