Title: Vex and Valor
Description: Peeking through a crack in the door, 10-year-old Vanessa witnesses a horrific scene. Following the altercation, a neighbor finds their mother bleeding and unconscious. And her children are missing. What happened to Ella and her kids?  
Vex and Valor (meaning tormented and fearless) is the story of two families from different sides of the track. Tim and Vee Crawford have a picture-perfect life. They are parents to four children and are lifelong residents of Brookton, PA.  Georgia and Zeke Hayes struggle to make ends meet after moving four of their children there from Tennessee.  The families become intertwined through the marriage of their two youngest children – Ella Crawford and Ben Hayes.
Some believe Ben is responsible for what happened. Others think it was an accident. Throughout we watch the families become even more entangled and continue to search for answers about Ella. We see the Crawford and Hayes grandchildren grow into adults, each with their own stories to tell. The saga comes to a climax when the truth is finally revealed.
