Mystery
Two churches, two ministers, two wives, one murder. While on patrol in the central California foothills near
Rocky Bluff, Officer Stacey Wilbur spots a car crashed into
a giant oak tree. A woman is slumped against the steering
wheel, blood pooling on the floor mats. Stacey calls the
incident in to her colleague and special friend, Detective
Doug Milligan, then secures the scene and waits for
emergency crews. The rescue squad confirms Wilbur's judgment. The woman is dead, but it's soon apparent the crash had
little to do with her death. There is a bullet hole behind
her ear. The car belongs to the minister of a local church
with an upscale congregation, and the dead woman on the
front seat is his wife. When Wilbur gives the minister the bad news, it is met with
aloofness bordering on unconcern. The typical suspect the
spouse first theory ratchets up a few ticks in Stacey
Wilbur's analytical mind. Before that jells, however, Wilbur
learns there is a potential other woman in the mix. As she sorts through the elements of the case, Stacey tries
to find enough time to explore her feelings for Doug Milligan.
