Unexpected Hero

Troubles are escalating all over town. Sylvia has major cleanup to do, not to mention figuring out who and why—and could the vandalism to her shop have something to do with Quinn's disappearance? Ethan and Nicole won't sit around idly waiting for Cooper Elliott to do all the work. Cooper has an investigation on his hands like never before in Hidden Falls, but he sure doesn't mind that it involves frequent communication with Lauren Nock. Liam is hitting wall after wall in finding a solution to his own personal crisis. Does he dare ask Dani for help (if she'd ever answer her phone)? Or even Jack Parker? Jack hears opportunity knocking. Surely all these crises require his legal expertise. But he feels a stronger tug toward his family—those four people who have almost given up on him. When his younger daughter needs him, will he choose advancing his career or being her hero? While most of the town is falling apart in Quinn's unexplained absence, some things might come together quite nicely. . . .
