After losing his family in a tragic auto accident in Georgia, Thomas O'Shea finds himself driving around the Iowa countryside, searching for peace. He stops to admire a unique mailbox, only to see a beautiful woman running down the country lane from her home toward him, screaming for help. At first, Thomas considers staying out of it all, but his SEAL training and a penchant for justice won't let him. With nothing left to lose, he risks snooping around in Rockbluff, an outwardly peaceful place not far from his childhood hometown, and uncovers a plot to rob local residents of their prime farmland. Struggling to find a new will to live, he discovers that the sometimes quirky characters of Rockbluff are ready and willing to help him do just that.

Suffering from insomnia, wise-cracking tough guy Thomas O'Shea goes for a late-night stroll through the peaceful streets of Rockbluff, Iowa. Pausing downtown on the bridge spanning the Whitetail River, something catches his eye. He scrambles down to the riverbank, where he discovers the nude body of a young girl with bullet holes in the back of her head. When the coroner's report lists the cause of death as "drowning," Thomas confronts him but is met with hostility. Then, mysteriously, the coroner and his wife disappear, along with the body of the dead girl. Thomas teams up with a buddy from his Navy SEAL days and a local Ojibwa bar owner named Lunatic in order to bring justice to the girl…and they walk straight into the world of organized crime.
