Description
Lassiter Hill is inspired by Iowa's Mark murders. It chronicles the lives of two brothers competing with one another for everything, including the love of the same woman. Their private conflicts become public following a horrific murder that tears apart their small farming community. The bodies of two small children and their parents are discovered murdered in their beds, the day after Halloween. Evidence of a satanic cult is discovered at the murder scene, prompting the town residents to suspect immigrant workers at a nearby packing plant. A rookie prosecutor who attempts to unravel the murder mystery is handicapped by an incompetent sheriff and the town's suspicions of newcomers from a different cultural background. The forces culminate in a dramatic murder trial that garners statewide attention, pitting the prosecutor and his circumstantial evidence against the town's power elite and their preconceived attitudes.
