Description
Lucy Owen has made a mess of things. She lost her house and made the bizarre decision to live on a school bus at the bus garage where she works as a school bus driver. While Lucy is sleeping on one of the buses, school board member Brian Foster is brutally murdered in a swamp behind the garage.Â
The discovery of her living arrangements by her boss, Dominic Salmeri, has been a double-edged sword. It caused humiliation and embarrassment to herself and her family, especially her son, who is a police officer. However, it also brings Lucy closer to co-worker, Paul Hagen.Â
Together Paul and Lucy start to uncover a web of corruption being perpetuated by the school board.  They are getting too close, and driving home late one night; Paul is run off the road by a speeding school bus and gravely injured. Soon after, Lucy's bus is hijacked and she is forced to drive into a cemetery where she is imprisoned in a mausoleum, and left to die.Â

Strangely, each member of the school board meets an untimely death, all seemingly unrelated and innocent. Could it be that fate and justice have aligned to make things right, or is it the long arm of the mob?
