Every secret takes on a life of its own.

Stoic and heartbroken, Einar Gilkyson quietly lives in the rugged Wyoming ranchlands alongside his only trusted friend, Mitch Bradley.

But even as buried anger and accusations resurface, the way is opened for unexpected connection, adventure, and forgiveness.
