   Summary

   Deputy Emma Swan is new on the force. It was supposed to be an easy job. Small town, low crime rate, Storybrooke seemed like the perfect place to start over. But the third night on the job, one call changes the whole trajectory of her life. A murder. Now it’s up to Storybrooke’s newest deputy to solve it, but life has a funny way of turning the tables when one least suspects it.
