Tyler Skaggs was born to play ball. He came from a family of ball players and took his talents all the way to the MLB to play for the Los Angeles Angels. After an injury left him in chronic pain, Tyler turned to prescription pain medication to get through the long stretches of back-to-back games. What was a seemingly innocent habit ended his life when he took the wrong thing from the wrong person.

On a snowy night in St. Charles County, Missouri, police were called to the scene of a car accident; finding the driver clinging to life. A rookie officer, with only two years on the force, took one look at the Cadillac in the creek, and knew in his gut that something was off. He could have never imagined that it would take years and the mysterious disappearance of a local man to get to the truth.
