As glovemaker Deborah Tyler awaits her husband's long-anticipated return home, a desperate stranger arrives on her doorstep asking for help.Everything about the man feels wrong. Deborah is sure he's on the run from the law, and the deputies chasing him can't be far behind. But to turn him away on this bitter January night could risk his life. With her husband's absence felt stronger by the minute, Deborah must make a decision. A decision that will change her life forever . . .
