The Oregon-California Trail carried more than 100,000 settlers west over the prairies of the future state of Kansas in the mid-1800s. Pioneers and Pony Express riders crossed the Big Blue River at Independence Crossing or at Frank Marshalls ferry near present-day Marysville. In 1846, members of the Donner Party discovered and named Alcove Spring, now one of 20 county sites listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The Kansas Territorial Legislature established Marshall County in 1855. After the Civil War, rich soil and abundant water attracted farmers, and its location attracted railroads and industry. Today, the same occupations still sustain the 16 towns and villages. As the Gateway to the Flint Hills, the countys rolling hills are dotted with picturesque prairie, woods, limestone outcrops, rivers, and creeks. Even though the county is a crossroads for modern highways US 36 and US 77, pioneer wagon ruts are still visible in Marshall County.

Millie has spent half of her life running from her perilous past, particularly from someone who wants nothing more than to destroy her life. She's dedicated her entire adult years to hiding in solitude, fearful of what will happen if she exposes herself even the slightest bit to the outside world. She likes to stay on the move, difficult to track and nearly impossible to find. Her latest move lands her in a dilapidated cabin high up in the forested mountains, secluded and isolated from the rest of the world --just the way she likes it. While Millie does her best to stay undetected in her new surroundings, she regrettably uncovers a horrendous crime that throws her into a whirlwind of circumstances that threaten to obliterate everything she's ever worked for-- keeping her identity unknown. In a twist of events, Millie's past comes back to haunt her worse than she ever imagined it could. Suddenly, she finds herself fighting for her life, while desperately trying to prove she's innocent of the crime she's now being accused of, something she's unfortunately fought to do before.
