Meredith has been uprooted to the middle of nowhere with two kids and an abusive husband. After she fantasizes about ways to kill him, he ends up dead. Despite all the evidence pointing to her, Meredith finds an unlikely supporter and friend in the county sheriff. Together, they uncover some ugly truths about her husband and this small, isolated town. Can Meredith make this place a new home for her family, or will the real secret behind her husband's death send her away for good?

Meredith knows three things: First, the man in the library begged her to help him. Second, he was afraid of his wife. Third, now he's dead. While the evidence first points to a natural death, Meredith is certain there's more to discover. People are tight-lipped in this small mountain village, and the man's wife isn't talking either. Then a second death occurs, with remarkable similarities. It's time to talk about murder. As a slow-burning relationship heats up in her own life, Meredith struggles with concepts of love and hate, belief and suspicion, and absolution and guilt. Nothing is clear cut... She must decide: Is guilt, like evil, something you can choose to believe in?
