When radio DJ Caleb Fredrick is found murdered one morning in January, the general assumption is that his death was the tragic result of a robbery gone wrong.

However, as the investigation starts to drag, Caleb's wife grows desperate for answers, desperate enough that she hires Ben Clydesdale, a Private Investigator, to look into her husband's murder.

Ben quickly realizes that the music scene of their small town is completely foreign to him, so when he bumps into an acquaintance at a bar, Julie Bernard, the daughter of a former colleague and friend, he brings her onto the case to serve as his guide.

Together, Ben and Julie are faced with the somewhat daunting task of unraveling the mysteries surrounding Caleb's death and uncovering the shadows lurking in his past.
