A murder. A land grab. A won’t see it coming ending. The explosive return of Nick Drake.
Wildlife Ranger Nick Drake and Sheriff Pudge Warbler join forces to solve a grisly murder. Their investigation thrusts them into the middle of a vicious battle between ranchers and developers over a beautiful valley.
When they close in on the killer, everything the lawmen hold dear is threatened and forces a reckoning. Will they honor their oaths to follow the letter of the law in the pursuit of justice or damn the consequences and use any means necessary to protect the people and land they love?
Whatever their decision, one thing is certain. While the Wild West lives on in Harney County, Oregon, not everyone in this fight will.
