Working for the Bakken County, North Dakota sheriff's department,
Cassie has set what she believes is the perfect trap and she has
lured him and his truck to a depot. But the plan goes horribly
wrong, and the blame falls on Cassie. Disgraced, she loses her
job and investigation into her role is put into motion.

At the same time, Kyle Westergaard, a troubled kid whom Cassie
has taken under her wing, has disappeared after telling people
that he’s going off on a long-planned adventure. Kyle's
grandmother begs Cassie to find him and, with nothing else to do,
Cassie agrees―all the while hunting the truck driver.

Now Cassie is a lone wolf. And in the same way that two streams
converge into a river, Kyle's disappearance may have a more
sinister meaning than anyone realizes. With no allies, no
support, and only her own wits to rely on, Cassie must take down
a killer who is as ruthless as he is cunning. But can she do it
alone, without losing her own humanity or her own life?
