A miserable family visit becomes much worse when Sydney's brother-in-law goes missing and is tied to a murder. With a hurricane closing in, she has to untangle the mess before the storm, or someone else, catches him first.

Sydney heads back to the Florida Panhandle to find a friend's father, a man his son was raised to believe was dead. Men with guns, fresh bodies, and a frightened fugitive turn the search into a race for survival.

Sydney agrees to help her mentor Ralph Abraham with a hard criminal case, even though the client is difficult and the timing is terrible. Then the investigation uncovers a buried secret someone will kill to protect.

Sydney agrees to a first date that should be nothing more than a lazy day on the river. When guns come out and a criminal scheme unravels around them, she and Mike have to fight their way back to shore.

Sydney takes on two urgent jobs at once, finding a missing teenager and locating the long-lost grave of a boy from a closed juvenile center. The cases collide as someone works hard to keep the past buried.

After a life-changing case, Sydney is dragged into a quiet trip with someone from her past. What begins as a simple visit becomes a dangerous tangle of family history, lies, and the risk of opening old wounds.
