The young woman is disoriented and disheveled and, even after questioning her, Eliβs sure of only two thingsβsheβs lying about something and sheβs terrified.Unjustly confined to an asylum, Maggie Radford did what was necessary to escapeβand now it haunts her. She asks God for forgiveness, even as she continues to spin a web of lies and deceit. There are several people searching for her, including the man who had her committed and the authorities who believe she started the fire. Sheriff Calhoun agrees to protect her, even though she canβt tell him what really happened. As Eli works to piece together Maggieβs story, heβs also dealing with his own troubles. As a young boy he witnessed a shooting and is now stunned to discover that the gunman is a powerful business owner whoβs running for state senator. Eli wants to stop him, but the would-be politician has plans of his own. Complicating matters is an old deputy with a hidden past, an orphan baby, a young boy with a secret, and a midwife with a tragic story of her own. As the danger escalates for both Maggie and Eli, their faith is tested and their developing relationship is tried. They must work together to solve the mysteries of the past, before their future is cut short.
