  Summary

  “I should have killed you in that house!”

  “Why didn’t you?”

  ------------------------------------------------
  Following the events of Season One, Fiona and Constance are forced to confront the consequences of the choices that have reshaped Angel’s Ridge forever. A powerful railroad company interested in buying the town threatens to uncover their buried secrets and untold lies, thus forcing the two women to put their hate aside and join forces to protect their families and claim back their home.

  Fiona finds her faith and moral convictions tested as she is forced to work alongside the woman she despises most, struggling with feelings that challenge everything she believes about sin, justice, and forgiveness. In the meanwhile, Constance is confronted with the damage she has inflicted upon her own legacy in the righteous pursuit of advancement of humankind.
