Summary

Once a successful attorney, Morris Rock’s world changed the day a ruptured brain aneurysm brought his career to a halt. In the quiet aftermath, he discovers the concept of ambiguous loss: the grief that haunts those left behind when someone vanishes without a trace.
 
Still recovering, Rock makes a bold decision: to return to the field, not to argue in court, but to find the missing. Reuniting with his trusted investigator Cleon Odom, Rock takes on the case of Joan Bradley, who has disappeared.
 
For Rock, the case is more than an unsolved mystery: it’s a path back to purpose. While chasing answers for others, he's also in search of something deeply personal: the man he used to be.
Available since: 06/03/2025.
