Lucy Price fled California for the sleepy midwestern town of Drake, Iowa--believing she could escape the trauma of a violent assault by a stalker whose fascination turned into hatred when he discovered her Mexican heritage.

Three years later, Lucy must face the fear she thought she had left behind when the spirit of her stalker takes shape within a white supremacist organization called American Values in Democracy (AVID). She feels the weight of responsibility, as her way of life, and the lives of everyone she holds dear, come under assault.

Like the Old Oak in the center of town, Lucy must find the strength and perseverance to move forward despite the fresh scar left behind by hatred and revenge.
