Emma Clarke - Abbi Weber

The 1970s. The Vietnam conflict, US soldiers captured in an unfamiliar country and held as prisoners of war, and at home prices on daily household items skyrocketing at a dramatic rate. Meanwhile, Emma Clarke is fighting a war of her own against the social climate in her small Midwestern town of Weeping Willow Lake. Young, naive, she discovers she is pregnant, and the man responsible is nowhere to be found. Evicted from her parents’ home by her hypocritical father, she is also faced with the scorn of her fellow employees. A close friend helps her find a place to live, while her elderly landlords, her employer, and an undauntable social worker stand by her through her confinement.

Rob Barclay accepts a special assignment for the state’s criminal apprehension department and moves to Weeping Willow Lake when information pinpoints the area as the prime location where numerous young women have been abducted for a sex-trafficking and prostitution ring.

The top blows off everything when Emma and Rob’s paths collide as the investigation focuses on her saintly father as a person of interest.

From there, all bets are off!
