I'm trying to carve out a place of my own where family bonds run deep in this tight-knit group of men.
They haven't been unwelcoming, but I yearn to truly belong. In both Laurel Springs, and the LSERT. The one friend I can count on is my K-9 partner, Donut. We're working hard to prove our spot in the police department, and find a sense of home. When I'm thrust into the role of school resource officer for the local elementary school, I never anticipate being drawn into an investigation that threatens to unravel the fabric of Laurel Springs.
