As a former cop turned private investigator, Annie Fitch hopes to never be in the line of fire again, so she's expanded her business to include installing security systems. She's thrilled to be hired by Preston Farr, a farmer with a vandalism problem on his family's historic apple orchard and farm.
Preston's roots in the community run deep. His family has held the same property in Leesburg, Virginia, since the 1700s. The two get to know each other over the course of the job. When Preston asks her out after the work is done, she accepts. After all, Annie's on-again, off-again love affair with her childhood best friend, Ford, is currently off. Why should she mope until he decides it's on again?
What she intended to be a fun, casual romp with Preston turns serious quickly when Annie's newly installed security cameras record startling footage. Family secrets begin to unravel, echoing over two hundred years of heartache and violence.
