Welcome to Lake Falls, Texas, where the air is thick with corruption and suspicion. In the midst of an emergency election for sheriff, tensions rise as the two candidates are locked in a dirty, sabotage-fueled tie. Private investigator Lizzie is called in to unravel the tangled web of electoral deceit.
