Sheriff John Shepard Dawson lives in Detroit, Michigan, with a bottle in his hand, a mute, traumatized girl in his care, and a mountain of self-loathing. Crime is more daunting than ever, but Shepard is better at fighting the city's darkness than confronting his own. His only light is his deputy-bright, loyal, and the one person who sees through Shepard's walls. But those walls are crumbling, brick by brick, and by the time Shepard realizes he loves the daughter he's barely learned to understand, it may already be too late to save her.
