A son returns home to confront a dangerous debt and family secrets that threaten to ignite. Roman Carruthers has left behind the crematory business of his hometown, Jefferson Run, Virginia, for a life of superficial success as a financial adviser in Atlanta. However, a call from his sister Neveah about their father's coma following a hit-and-run accident compels him to return. Upon his arrival, Roman discovers the accident may be linked to his brother Dante's dangerous debts to ruthless criminals. Determined to protect his family at all costs, Roman must leverage his financial acumen to navigate this perilous situation while grappling with a haunting mystery: the disappearance of their mother two decades ago. Neveah, who has devoted herself to holding the family together, is resolute in uncovering the truth. As fate intertwines with heartache, the Carruthers family must unite to survive, or risk losing everything to the flames of their past. Their father's words echo in their minds: nothing lasts forever; everything burns.
