Summary

A young couple has just been assaulted—the young man murdered, and his girlfriend raped, severely beaten and left for dead. An unscrupulous town chief cop, with ties to the murder and assault, attempts to cover it up—along with the mayor, chief judge, and town newspaper publisher. Why? What is their connection to this crime? The deep secret they share? The price they'll pay if the crime is solved?

But an indignant, determined cop and a civil rights minister are determined to uncover what happened—at all costs. Good crosses and battles with evil in this story of greed, deception, and betrayal.
