A detour through the seedy underbelly of a postcard-perfect small town. Neilly Reid finds herself swindled into pushing paper in a crooked public works department. She can handle the bureaucracy, a bit of white-collar crime, and the dim-witted local police, but things get dicey when she catches feelings for Jesse Root, the bag man for the small-town mob. From the Ken's Corner parking lot, Jesse is scheming to win a seat in the provincial legislature. He needs Neilly by his side to sanitize his image while he juggles the demands of the mobster who runs the seedy underbelly of this postcard-perfect town from the seat of his snowplow.
