Rookie Cop Valorie Dawes must stop an imminent violent attack by a ruthless, cunning extremist group. 
Standing in her way is the sudden return of a person she barely knows: her mother.

As part of a prostitution sting operation, rookie cop Val Dawes uncovers a national sex trafficking ring operating out of Clayton, one with ties to a violent shadowy right-wing splinter group. Her investigation reveals the group may be planning a violent attack in a matter of days.

Just when the investigation heats up, her estranged mother, who left without a trace a decade before, suddenly reappears on the scene, with a nine-year-old brother Val never knew she had. Manipulative and cunning, her mother divides Val’s attention and loyalties, seemingly intent on disrupting both Val’s promising career and her rekindled relationship with her father.

As the group’s violent plans near, Val tries to safeguard her family, leading to shocking discoveries about why her mother returned—and why she left in the first place.

Can Val keep her community safe without destroying her family?
