Returning to Pine Harbor was never part of Joy O'Farrell's plan.

But after a near?fatal shooting sidelines her NYPD career, she finds herself back in the upstate town she swore she'd left behind -- a town still under the grip of the powerful Wallace family who shattered her father's reputation years ago.

When Joy uncovers their latest criminal expansion, she sees a chance to clear her father's name and take down the family that has ruled Pine Harbor through fear and corruption. Fueled by a relentless pursuit of justice, she launches a dangerous crusade that pulls her deep into the town's web of secrets -- and straight toward a New York kingpin who never leaves loose ends.

In a place where old wounds fester, and legacies dictate fate, Joy must decide if justice is worth risking everything -- even her life.
