Family Shame
Badges Don’t Work in Willow Creek
In Willow Creek, the law is just another rumor. Guns, drugs, and stolen cars fuel a twisted American Dream where being broke is the only real crime—and nobody escapes the town’s grip. When Billy Ray, a boy marked by family shame and burning anger, rejects his mother’s desperate hopes for a criminal fortune and joins the sheriff’s office, he steps straight into the eye of the storm. But in a place where lawmen are prey and every neighbor is an outlaw, can one badge mean anything at all? Or will Billy Ray become just another cautionary tale whispered over backyard fires? Welcome to the town where survival means picking a side—fast.
