A young physician, Dr. Abby Wilmore, attempts to escape her past by starting over at the Grand Canyon Clinic.

While tending to unprepared tourists, underserved locals, and her own mental trials, Abby finds herself entangled in an unexpected romance and trapped amidst a danger even more treacherous than the foreboding desert landscape.
