The Town Where It Happened
No Customer Reviews
A cheap blond wig, a single strap-on heel, a faux Hermes shoulder bag - the only evidence police ever found in what they believed was the brutal beating of a prostitute in a small New England town a decade ago. Case closed. Or is it? Jack Dunne is a writer of mystery fiction and desperate for a second bestseller. He has decided to base his book on the cold case, sticking to the maxim: write what you know. Jack knows the identity of the victim, and, more incriminatingly, intimate details of that fateful night's fraternity 'freak off'. He is risking life and livelihood by re-opening the case and making it central to his plot. But before he submits a completed manuscript, he must know everything the police know. Everything. This much he does know about the game he's calling 'cold case chess': he is the King, he beds the Queen, his uncle is a Bishop - literally - but who is the Knight who saved his life that decisive night, and how many rooks and pawns who strode the board are alive and might talk? Under pressure from his publisher to complete the manuscript, in need of the second half of his advance, Jack feels he must move fast to learn the facts before being checkmated.
