They are plunged into a frightening situation of corruption at the highest level of law enforcement - Missys abusive husband is involved in drugs and money laundering on a massive scale. The sheriff and Tom, with Missys help, embark on an involved plan to corner her husband, arrest him, and free Missy from a self imposed prison. The problem requires she be hidden so deeply no one can find her until the situation can be resolved. A dramatic end to the crisis finally reveals Missys true identity.
