Description

Unbelievably, this story is real even though its theme has been exposed in earlier film noir stories and in lines memorialized by Shakespeare. In this gripping, appalling account of a Tallahassee murder about twenty years ago, author and psychoanalyst Mikita Brottman has collected the data recording the events that led to the disappearance of a young duck hunter whose body was hidden for a generation.

The reader views the milieu of a Baptist community, where two pairs of high school sweethearts marry and apparently remain best of friends. That is until the husband of one pair and the wife of the other would prefer to change partners. Divorce sounds too sinful, but murder, if kept secret, is preferable.

Read on as the murderer sinks into sex addiction and alcoholism, while the widow collects the insurance and soothes her conscience by teaching bible classes. Follow the plaintive pleas of the disappeared man’s mother as she seeks a solution, while a local reporter maintains the mystery story for over dozen years, and suspicious police nose around for evidence.

Finally, supposedly the truth erupts, and watch the trials and wonder how and if justice is served. This is a page-turner that generates chills whenever the story is recalled.
