Description
A garage owner turns down an offer to sell his property. Not long afterwards, his body is found, riddled with bullets, in a trunk of a car parked at O'Hare Airport. Forty years later, the death of that man is important in the investigation of a murder on the corner of Maple and Second. Detective Leonard Stutz tries to close the case. There has not been a murder in this town in many years; his longtime partner has just retired, and his chief is under pressure from the mayor, the county, the relatives of the deceased, and even the feds. The suspects include some strange neighbors of the victim: a suspicious banker and his bimbo wife, a recluse who seems to dislike everyone, a carpenter who deals guns or drugs or both, the wife of a lazy state highway worker, and others. The case is not easy to solve.
