Sheriff Quinn Colson is faced with the release of an infamous murderer from prison. Jamey Dixon comes back to Jericho preaching redemption, and some believe him; but for the victim's family, the only thought is revenge. Another group who doesn't believe him - the men in prison from Dixon's last job, an armored car robbery. They're sure he's gone back to grab the hidden money, so they do the only thing they can: break out and head to Jericho themselves. Colson and his deputy, Lillie, know they've got their work cut out for them. Then comes one more unwelcome visitor: a tornado that causes havoc just as events come to a head.
