A Sam McCain mystery
Summary
"1971: When we last saw Sam McCain he had been drafted to fight the war in Vietnam. But Sam's military career ended in boot camp when he was badly hurt in an accident that forced him to spend months recovering in a military hospital. Now Sam is back in his hometown of Black River Falls, where he works as a lawyer (and part-time investigator) for the court of the snobbish but amusing Judge Esme Ann Whitney. Enter Will Cullen, who accidentally killed a young girl during a firefight with the Viet Cong, and is deeply troubled by his wartime experiences. When Will announces that he has joined the national Vietnam Vets Against the War, many fellow vets feel he has betrayed them. But it comes as a great surprise when war vet Steve Donovan brutally belittles and savagely beats his old friend Will when he hears that Cullen has joined the anti-war group. When Donovan is found murdered, the obvious suspect is Cullen, but Sam has serious doubts about the man's guilt. At least three people had reasons to murder Donovan, and Sam begins to suspect he'll discover even more as his investigation heats up."--Front flap of jacket
