Rhonda is a former lawyer who sticks to the rules. Her half-sister, Baby, trusts her gut and real-world instincts. They run a small detective agency out in Los Angeles, but their clashing styles often lead to conflict. Baby is still trying to prove that she’s an independent woman who can stand on her own.
When a wealthy woman disappears, the sisters take the case, but to solve it, they’ll have to put aside their fights and work as one as they will soon learn they’re risking more than they realize to find her.
One night, an elderly woman leaves her home and walks into the forest, guided by a strange light. Two men, one older and one younger, wait nearby by a fire. They have a task, but its purpose is unclear. They are searching for something valuable and have only been told they will recognize it when they find it. Their journey brings them to an old, forgotten church cellar in a burned-out landscape. What they find there changes everything. The road ahead is dangerous and there is no way to undo what comes next.
