In Brigham City, Utah, Wes Clayton serves as the town sheriff and a devout Latter-Day Saint, one of seventeen bishops in a community that has rarely faced serious crime. He works with a small, loyal staff: Peg, his witty receptionist, and Stu, the elderly former sheriff, alongside Terry, a young and idealistic deputy. The town’s calm veneer sits beneath a layer of routine good faith, and Clayton strives to keep that balance even when shadows begin to creep in.
