Asher Led Ledbettor is a loner by profession. Skating on the ice of other peoples' lives, he documents their foibles and follies, kept at a distance by the lens of a camera. He's confident that thing can surprise him, until he encounters Callie McBride, a midwestern farm girl who is sweet, trusting and caring...everything he isn't. When Led gives Callie a taste of what it's like to be a private investigator, she gives him a glimpse of himself as a better man. But even before their second date, the two are in deeper than expected, as a simple insurance investigation finds them entangled with a greedy philanthropist, a menacing venture capitalist, a thief of radioactive material, and a distributor of the Fanning Knight stick... Everyone wants to kw something. Some just want it more than others.
