Stars: Amanda Schull and Brendan Penny
Dr. Rachel Hunt (Schull) is a smart and intuitive small-town family doctor. Once a trauma surgeon in the US army, after losing her husband in combat, she retired her commission and is now settling into a quiet, new life back home with her widowed father (Gerard Plunkett, Travelers) and her teenaged twins, Chloe (Isla Crerar, The Stand) and Matthew (Jett Klyne, WandaVision).
When favorite patient Ross Alexander (Greg Kean, #XMAS) suddenly dies shortly after Rachel gave him a clean bill of health, she cannot shake the feeling that there is more to it. Her attempt to involve the authorities is met with resistance by charming police detective Jack Quinn (Penny), who wants to help, but is not convinced that this is anything more than a death by natural causes. Rachel puts her background in military forensics to work and starts to investigate what could possibly have caused the beloved newspaper editor’s death. With support from community friends, new and old, Rachel persuades Quinn to keep digging. But when finding the search for a killer puts Rachel’s life in danger, she realizes that smalltown life will not be nearly as quiet as she had planned.
