In rural East Tennessee, a family stands to lose all when they receive a federal notice of forfeiture against their home and land. A local man is charged with the cultivation and trafficking of marijuana when plants are discovered by the DEA in a remote parcel of over a hundred acres of family property held through five generations. John and Ellen Griffith's marriage is already in peril when their daughter Barbara turns up at their door, having fled an abusive marriage with puzzling new feelings about her sexual orientation. Their son Will is away at MIT on a full scholarship and kept in the dark and their son Walt is a disillusioned post-grad with a penchant for doing nothing, back home with his own souring relationship and no prospects. As the story unfolds, so does the truth— with its dark secrets that threaten to break the implicit trust between a husband, wife and their children. A gripping and suspenseful story of a family struck by a legal nightmare that threatens to pull it apart at the seams— if the dark forces within and between them don't first.
