An escape from madness leads to murder ...
After suffering a manic episode, twenty-six-year old Maddie Malone retreats to small-town Kenowa and her aunt and uncle's cattle ranch for peace and restoration. But things are never quiet for long in Maddie's world: She finds her heart torn between her childhood sweetheart and a suave older man.
Then tragedy strikes: Maddie's uncle is found dead; poisoned by a cup of oleander tea. The police think its suicide. Maddie knows its murder. Now it's up to her to prove it.
