Publisher's Synopsis
November is usually quiet in Holcomb, Kansas, but in 1959, the town is shattered by the quadruple murder of the Clutter family. Suspicion falls on Nancy Clutter's boyfriend Bobby Rupp; the last one to see them alive. New Yorker Carly Fleming is an outsider. Carly and Bobby were the only ones who saw that Nancy was cracking under the pressure of being Holcomb's golden girl. Determined to clear Bobby's name, Carly dives into the murder investigation and ends up in trouble. But that's nothing compared to the wrath she faces from Holcomb once the real perpetrators are caught. When her father is appointed to defend the killers of the Clutter family, the entire town labels the Flemings as traitors. Now Carly must fight for what she knows is right.
