This is turning into my all-time favorite series. I can’t say that it is solely for the plotlines, or the banter between unforgettable characters, or even the societal facets. All I can say is that it comes together in a perfect blend of people and circumstance with just the right amount of compassion and humor from people that you would not think to have an ounce of sympathy or empathy amongst them.
What begins with the subtle mewing of an infant found buried under the body of a dead woman leads to Detective Casey Duncan questioning life choices and how previous body trauma, which left her unable to have a child of her own, might derail her life with new love Sheriff Eric Dalton.
As they are searching for which group the child came from, Casey begins to have unexpected feelings which lead to troubling thoughts as to what would be better for the child -- returning her to the scavengers and nomads in the area or having the child remain with her in Rockton. A hidden community, which she calls home, that is made up of killers and psychopaths and those running away from killers and psychopaths.
