Life in the small town of Broken Wheel, Wyoming tends to be a little predictable...until Sheriff's Deputy Jade Lundgren is assigned to deal with the "wolf problem." Now that wolves have been taken off the endangered species list, people are divided as to whether the wolves should be protected, destroyed, or simply left alone. Tasked with controlling the escalating tensions, Jade finds herself trying to make sense of seemingly unrelated crimes, while juggling her feelings for local rancher, Harlan Winters, and the mysterious, Irish wildlife biologist, Conall O'Faolán.
