Small town Dahlonega, Georgia, has plenty of secrets to hide. Anna (Tessa Thompson) grew up there but has moved on to Atlanta where she works as a news anchor. When she catches wind that her hometown is the scene of a murder, she’s drawn back to the community, and inadvertently back into the life of her ex-husband, Detective Jack Harper (Jon Bernthal).

Harper has his hands full with his deadbeat sister, Zoe (Marin Ireland), and young niece, Meg (Ellie Rose Sawyer), in his house, along with some secrets of his own. Anna is back and poking her nose into his investigation, one that he doesn’t want getting out of his hands. Harper’s partner, Priya (Sunita Mani), may be green, but she’s got a knack for investigation and soon grows suspicious of her partner.

Through flashbacks, we learn of an event from Anna’s teen years that involved the murder victim, and soon a dark mystery starts to unravel. The small town’s secrets and lies start to spill over, and a race against a killer is soon afoot. This one is for fans of crime dramas and those who don’t mind a twist ending.
