Ellie Bauer has finally shaken off the shroud of despair that has surrounded her since her husband’s death a year ago. But she’ll soon find her reprieve cut short….

Tucked away on her forty acres of private land in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Ellie, a prolific artist, has grown accustomed to the peacefulness inherent to the territory. But when she secretly witnesses a violent act of revenge in her own backyard, the term peaceful no longer applies.

After Ellie comes to the victim’s aid and learns his identity, she vows to help him put his life back together. To ensure his safety and avoid a target on her own back, she keeps her heroic actions and the man hidden from the authorities and everyone she knows—for now. Having endured a tumultuous childhood, Ellie is all too familiar with the uncomfortable practice of keeping secrets. But after a dramatic turn of events, lying is the least of her worries…. Ellie must battle for her own life while attempting to protect her loved ones. To make matters worse, her childhood fears resurface because of all the conflict, compromising her ability to behave rationally.

Can Ellie set things right before it’s too late? And will she emerge from the fallout unscathed?
