Detective Aaron Holt discovers she had been investigating corruption hidden within the town’s leadership, including her uncle, Mayor Calloway. As Holt unravels her trail, he uncovers secret bank records buried in an orchard and realizes half the town’s officials are complicit. Betrayed by Sheriff Daniels and hunted by his own, Holt risks everything to expose the truth. With state police intervention, Marlow’s leaders fall, but justice comes at a heartbreaking cost.
