Jesse McDermitt is a young woman trapped in a rut. She needs to break free of the routine of her old life, but she has no idea how to do that. That changes when she meets Caleb, a charismatic guy who gives her hope for her future. But soon after Jesse falls head over heels in love with Caleb, he disappears without a trace. Jesse starts working at the bar where he used to work, trying to find out what happened to him and get closure. It's not long before Jesse uncovers her budding detective skills and learns that she's more connected than she could have ever imagined.

Jesse McDermitt was a 19 year old who was kicked out of his home by his alcoholic father and had nowhere to go. Luckily he met a woman named Angela, who took him in as her son and put him through drug rehabilitation. He was just a kid when she adopted him. When he got back to his hometown he learned that Angela had been killed in an attempted robbery, but he didn't let it get him down too much. He then started working for the county recycling center, which turned into a job at the day care where she worked. That's where Jesse first meets Kristen and their story begins.

Jesse is a street-smart, tough-as-nails woman living in her own world and taking care of herself. She doesn't need help from anyone, not even from her brother's ex-girlfriend, Maddie, who just happens to be one of the top saleswomen on Wall Street. When Jesse finds out about a big opportunity for her at work, she's ecstatic--until she realizes the catch: She'll have to leave her alcoholic mother alone with their father, who has been struggling with cancer for some time now.

Jesse McDermitt is a sensitive guy with a smart mouth, a heart of gold, and an undeniable attraction to danger. He's the one person who can save people from themselves when they're about to make the wrong choices or ruin their lives for good. Always loyal, always in control, he's the one person you can count on when everyone else has given up.

Jesse McDermitt is a man who has been through hell, and has managed to come out the other side. Now that he has momentum on his side, he is looking for his next big break. He wants to go back to school and finish his degree, but what starts as an innocent conversation about maybe getting a scholarship turns into something much bigger. Jesse finds himself in the middle of a case with serious ramifications for his life, and soon learns that everything he thought about the world isn't quite true.

In the opening scene, Jesse McDermitt is sitting on a bench in the doctor's office. He is waiting to hear how his wife died. His life changes when he reads an ad in the paper for a therapist who specializes in helping people work through grief.
