They have a second chance…
If they can find a killer.
Framed for a murder he didn’t commit, Ian Carter left Juniper, Colorado, to join the Marines, leaving behind his childhood sweetheart, Bella Winters. More than a decade later, he goes back home to discover that Bella is a CSI—and that she’s raising a son he didn’t know he had. She convinces Ian to help her investigate the case that tore them apart and clear his name, but as soon as they begin digging, copycat killings start happening. It’s clear that someone doesn’t want them to uncover the truth…
