Life in quiet Sanstone, Prescott County, Minnesota was rocked by the discovery of a body at the bottom of iconic Glacier Cliff in the Prescott Game Preserve. The body was one of their teenagers, Erick Harman, known for his drug parties in the game preserve. The initial assumption was that Erick fell over the edge deliberately to avoid going back to a drug rehab center. Detective Thad Wheeler, new to the sheriff's department, finds conflicting evidence suggesting it was murder rather than suicide. Thad's investigation leads him into a network of drug dealers as he pursues Erick's drug supplier known only as the hitchhiker. Thad's investigation leads him into a network of drug dealers, puts him in physical danger and brings threats to his family. Thad is forced to refocus on a second murder and an attempted murder when he suspects they are related to his first case.
