Avery Barks has poured her free hours into training search and rescue dogs and caring for animals in need. When a job loss leaves her short on money and plans, she offers help to an older neighbour, and the two of them, along with Avery's dog Chevy, stumble on a body. The quiet North Carolina mountain town is rattled by the discovery. Avery then realises the dead man is the same person who cost her the job, placing her in the middle of a tense situation. Determined to clear her name, she follows the clues with her loyal canine partner beside her, aware that a wrong move could make her the prime suspect.
