After Monica receives a late-night phone call from an old friend asking for help, she enlists Max and Skip to find the missing Angie. The two detectives partner up with Monica in the search that goes in a circle that begins and ends in the crossroad towns of Fraser and Pilot Mound in Boone County, Iowa. The detectives travel to the town of Oelwein, once known as the meth capital of the world, to follow up leads, and find themselves right back where they started as the three chase bikers and ne'er-do-wells of every description halfway across the state and back, while roadblocks are thrown in their path at every turn, making them question who are the good guys and who are the bad guys. The only thing that they do know for sure is that the clock is ticking on Angie and that they aren't making any headway. It is a race against time to find Angie before she disappears forever.
