A robbery gone bad forces small-town PI Paige Harmon to take the lives of two young men before they can kill even more innocent people. Wracked with guilt, she accepts an unusual request from the mother of one of the gunmen: find out who turned her boy into a killer.

As Paige untangles the threads she finds, she is drawn into a conspiracy of human trafficking between the Philadelphia Mob and a shadowy supremacist group from the rural middle of the state. Assisted by an unorthodox FBI agent and a working girl with a startling array of deadly skills, Paige races to stop the flow of women and children being sold in exchange for weapons and other illicit goods. She is determined to atone for the sins of the dead, even if it kills her in the process.
