By working with surprising allies, her research reveals tragedy that extends beyond the Southwest to hit Joya's Midwest hometown, where grief turns to revenge, violence, and murder. Because she's chasing the biggest scoop of her career, Joya risks her job, her love, and her life to see if Sammy can be stopped.
