Former Atlanta cop and Prosperity Glen High School football hero Judd Wheeler returned to Prosperity to take a position as Police Chief. For eight years, with one tragic exception, it had been a quiet, uneventful job. Now, the body of a young illegal immigrant Mexican girl has been found along the banks of Six Mile Creek. For the first time since his return to Prosperity, Wheeler finds himself with a murder on his hands.His investigation will place him in direct opposition to his closest childhood friend, ratchet up racial and class tensions in a community already stretched to the limit, and nearly tear his quiet little town to pieces as he searches for the murderer of Gypsy Camarena.
