Serendipity brings joy yet it can also lead life into never imagined directions. Quinn Isaacs, daughter of a wealthy Knoxville mother and equally wealthy Spanish father, entered law enforcement after one of the worst traumas a high school student can experience-an active shooter on campus her senior year. After ten years as an agent with Immigration Services, she leaves to become lead detective in the small rural town of Round City in the Smoky Mountains. In her second week on the job, the deaths of two women and a complicated web of family connections swirl through the mountains like the winter wind. Building a team in the hierarchical system in the Round City Police and facing her own demons as she struggles with self-doubt and nightmares, Quinn begins to understand the long-held belief about mountain life: it's a place where people take care of each other-except when they don't.
