When a catastrophic storm tears through Haven Ridge, K9 handler Michael Richards and his search-and-rescue partner Thor must brave floodwaters, landslides, and the ghosts of past failures to save their community.
“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overflow you.” — Isaiah 43:2
“The mountains don't care about your plans. The storms come when they come. And sometimes, the only thing you can do is trust your training, trust your partner, and step into the darkness.”
