Deputy Maggie Burroughs should've been clocking out and heading home, but there was one last call. A report of possible child neglect at an abandoned house in the middle of nowhere. A little girl and boy - and all the living fears.
Forrest County Sheriff's Deputy Maggie Burroughs is having a bad day. First there was the cold, wet winter weather, then a car accident on an icy bridge, and finally a routine stop to investigate a claim of neglected children. At an ages-old abandoned house in the middle of nowhere she finds a little girl and boy, and ends up dealing with far more than she ever expected.
