Overview

Beneath an idyllic veneer of Southern country charm, the quaint town of Newberry, South Carolina hides secrets that may have led to murder. When a local landowner's body, with pants down, is found near Tarleton's Tea Table Rock-a notorious rendezvous spot, federal investigator Carolina Slade senses a chance to insert herself back into the field again. Just as she discovers what might be a nasty pattern of fraud and blackmail, her petty boss reassigns her fledgling case to her close friend and least qualified person in their office. Forced to coach the investigation from the sidelines, Slade struggles with the twin demons of professional jealousy and unplanned pregnancy. Something, however, is rotten in Newberry. Her personal life is spiraling out of control. She can't protect her co-worker. And Federal Agent Wayne Largo complicates everything when the feds step in after it becomes clear that Slade is right. One wrong move and Slade may lose everything. Yet it's practically out of her hands . . . unless she finds a way to take this case back without getting killed.
