What's in a name? Money and prestige if the name is Morgan and a whole lot of trouble if the name is Savannah. Lee Morgan is determined she's his daughter and is doubly determined to intrude into her life and bring her on board the family's multimillion dollar business. Lee's claims are supported when his son's poisonous tell-all book "Bad Blood" hits the shelves and races up the best seller lists. At the same time Savannah and Georgia go in search for a piece of furniture in the attic back home in Augusta where they run across their mother's journals that paint a much different picture of events leading up to Savannah's conception. Savannah struggles to cope with the bombshells threatening to wreck her world as she's known it, fights break out among family, and dead bodies are piling up. She soon learns it doesn't pay to be a Morgan.

The Rutherford Ranch becomes a temporary refuge for more than a stranded individual or two, including a group of convicted murderers who escaped a prison and are on the lam. Time is running out for the family to save themselves from the men holding them against their will.
