Big city lawyer Joanna Hanley returns to her hometown to take the case of a group of girls suffering from a mysterious illness.

When a mining company reopens a dormant mine outside Millwood, Joanna Hanley Chang and Billy Crawford, lawyers and new parents, step in to protect a local woman's home from certain destruction. When the mine swiftly retaliates, Joanna is forced to confront a long-buried secret from her past and scramble to protect the future of her career and her family. As both sides prepare for war with the fate of Millwood at stake, Joanna and Billy must juggle their life with a newborn with waging a legal battle against a corporate titan. When they come across evidence the mine isn't what it claims to be, Joanna seizes an opportunity to launch an unexpected legal battle that will bring the company to its knees.—Canon y mus
