When Marley Dearcorn is fired from her job at the Montana Fish and Wildlife office and blamed for tipping off a ring of poachers before a big bust by the local game wardens, her reputation is shot and her prospects look grim. The last thing she wants to do is crawl back home and accept charity from her over-protective father, but she doesn't have a choice. Back in Killdeer, she takes a job working as a landscaper to make ends meet, certain that she is the focus of her small hometown gossip. After a savage windstorm hits Killdeer, she heads for the closest house to make sure her neighbor made it through the night, only to find him dying on his kitchen floor. Marley does what she can to save him, but when he doesn't survive, something makes her suspect that there is more to his death than a simple heart attack. True to her nature, she takes it upon herself to dig deeper. An ominous warning shows up on her property making her realize that someone doesn't want her asking questions, and they are willing to do almost anything to make her stop. Maybe she is determined to clear her name; maybe she wants to see justice served, but either way she can't let it go. But is her reputation in Killdeer something worth dying for?
