Description
As Joe Pickett prepares to leave his temporary post as a game warden in Baggs, Wyoming, he finds himself entangled in a gripping mystery that proves impossible to escape. With only days left on the job, the tensions in the small mountain town simmer, and dark secrets threaten to surface. Just when he hopes for a peaceful conclusion to his assignment, a string of unexplained incidents pulls him deeper into the wilderness he thought he knew.
While navigating the rugged terrain, Joe discovers a community rife with conflict, where the stakes are higher than he anticipated. He grapples with not only the local folk’s mistrust but also an escalating series of events after a body is found, igniting suspicions that tear at the fabric of the town. In the face of potential violence and betrayal, Joe must rely on his instincts, his connections, and the land itself to unravel the truth.
Caught between a rock and a hard place, he confronts his own doubts and fears, complicating his mission to uncover a mystery that could leave lasting ramifications for himself and the community he has grown attached to. As he races against time, the final days of his temporary role transform into a life-or-death struggle.
This harrowing tale emphasizes the bonds of friendship, loyalty, and the struggle for justice in a world where the law can often feel distant. As Joe battles not only the elements but also the shadows lurking in the hearts of those around him, he ultimately questions not only what it means to protect but also where his true home lies.
