If a park ranger saves someone from danger--the reasons not quite understood--are they entitled to secrets that can't be shared? High on a treacherous canyon wall, a man from the pueblo clings to a ledge. Furiously working to rescue him, Park Ranger Jack Chastain is nearly killed. Now he wants an explanation, and the man refuses to talk.
Jack learns the secret revolves around a death sixteen years before, and a lot more is now at stake. While looking for answers, ghosts from Jack's own past threaten his new life in New Mexico. When protecting a place loved by many--a national park--competes with the appeal of the rich and powerful, short-term admiration can have lasting consequences. Jack Chastain is forced to choose.
