In the tiny town of Titan Falls, New
Hampshire, the paper mill dictates a quiet, steady rhythm of life. But one day
a tragic bus accident sets two families on a course toward destruction,
irrevocably altering the lives of everyone in their wake. June McAllister is
the wife of the local mill owner and undisputed first lady in town. But the
Snow family, a group of itinerant ne'er-do-wells who live on a decrepit and
cursed property, have brought her--and the town--nothing but grief. June will do anything to cover up a dark
secret she discovers after the crash, one that threatens to upend her
picture-perfect life, even if it means driving the Snow family out of town. But
she has never gone up against a force as fierce as the young Mercy Snow. Mercy
is determined to protect her rebellious brother, whom the town blames for the
accident, despite his innocence. And she has a secret of her own. When an old
skeleton is discovered not far from the crash, it beckons Mercy to solve a
mystery buried deep within the town's past.
