Crocker, MO.
1953

Crocker Chief of Police Owen Bagby stood by his patrol car, wiping his red face with a handkerchief. The day wasn’t hot, but Bagby stayed overheated regardless of the weather. Overweight and balding, he had the look of a man who had seen too much. But that was in another time and another place far away, not in Crocker. Nothing ever happened here.

And then the first murder came. 14-year-old Patsy Raymond, dead in the town cemetery, a deep knife wound in her side. Afterwards, it was discovered the girl was twelve weeks pregnant. A week later, Barb Reed was found strangled in the storeroom of her diner.

Chief Bagby and his deputy, Dewayne “Brownie” Brown, now had two murders to solve along with bank embezzlement, suspicion of child molestation and a fire chief who may be a fugitive wanted by the F.B.I. Suddenly, a place where nothing happened is teeming with intrigue and mystery and Chief Bagby wonders if he ever really knew his town at all.
