Summary

Twelve years ago, Heidi White's parents were shot to death on their Wisconsin dairy farm. The police declared it a murder-suicide and closed the case. But that night, Heidi found the one clue she knew could lead to the truth -- if only the investigators would listen. Now Heidi White is Heidi Kick, wife of local baseball legend Harley Kick and mother of three small children. She's also the interim sheriff in Bad Axe. Half the county wants Heidi elected but the other half will do anything to keep her out of law enforcement. And with a deadly ice storm approaching, tensions rise and long-buried secrets rise to the surface. As freezing rain washes out roads and rivers flood their banks, Heidi finds herself on the trail of a missing teenaged girl. Someone is planting clues for her to find, exposing some unpleasant truths that point disturbingly close to home. With a murder to solve, a missing girl to save, and a monster to bring to justice, Heidi is on the cusp of shaking her community to its core -- and finding out what really happened the night her parents died
