Set against the backdrop of a chilling unsolved murder from 1967, the narrative explores the complexities surrounding Ron Little Red Beasley's death, initially deemed a suicide. His family and friend, Herman Young, doubted this conclusion, especially after Beasley's wife was convicted of another murder. Young, who later became sheriff, dedicated himself to uncovering the truth. Lou Sahadi intricately weaves together the gruesome details of the case, two intense court trials, and the relentless pursuit of justice by a loyal friend and lawman.
