Bode and his aunt, Sheriff Mickey Fox (Morena Baccarin), investigate the attempted cuddle of her estranged father, Wes Fox (W. Earl Brown), Mickey's estranged father and Sharon's stepfather who runs an illegal marijuana business.
Bad choices don't make a bad man. At least that's what Bode Donavan's been told. Midway through a five-year prison stretch, he's been trying to convince himself of it, too. He gets the chance to prove it, signing on to an unconventional prison-release program: in exchange for reduced sentences, convicts are paired with firefighters battling Northern California wildfires. The heat is turned up when Bode's assigned to the program in his rural hometown, the place where all his troubles began.
