   Summary

   Deputy Rick Grimes' life went to hell at some point in his life. Not long ago he had a family, a job, and the satisfaction of doing it, and today he's alone, crushed, and humiliated in front of the entire office. A group of FBI agents burst into his life the same way they did into his office, and things only get worse. How far down does he have to go to bounce back and get to the surface? Will anyone help?
