Truth is in the eye of the beholder. Sometimes guilt is, too . . . It's been months since that horrible day USAF captain Miranda Morgan flew her C-130 Hercules into lethal cross fire in Afghanistan. But Randi still can't believe Ty, her best friend -- her anchor when a disastrous marriage left her a single mother -- is really gone. Now back on her ancestral land in southeastern Oklahoma, Randi knows she did all she could to get Ty out safely, but his billionaire father is convinced there's blood on Randi's hands, and through his fog of hatred will stop at nothing to punish her. But when physics professor Pete Engstrom asks permission to study the mysterious rune stones scattered around her property, Randi is convinced she's found the one man willing to watch her back. That is, until a buried secret is revealed. And someone with an eye cast on fortune is lurking, ready to strike a final blow.
