The food is gone, the water is scarce, and the light has gone out. Only memories remain.
Beset by the lasting demons of his post-traumatic stress diagnosis, a Marine Corps veteran kills his ex-wife and injures his daughter when he mistakes them for intruders.
After he is arrested, the city police begin to assemble a case for first-degree murder. The detective in charge enlists private investigator Alexandra Perez to focus on possible drug-trafficking allegations against the incarcerated veteran.
As Alex deals with the foreboding spectre of losing her father to cancer, she obsesses over the case as it grows ever more complex and dangerous. She chases the clues dutifully until she hits unexpected snags that take the case in different directions.
Grappling with the choice between satisfying her client's needs and doing the right thing, Alex immerses herself in a confusing scheme that could impact many lives.
With the guidance of her boss, Benjamin Carr, and the loyal assistance of her partner Mario Rico, Alex must get to the bottom of everything before more innocent people are killed.
