The small town had witnessed several gruesome events in the past decade: various suicides, a devastating murder, and even a school shooting. When Charles Huntington is faced with a similar fate; it is unclear how the town will respond. 

He was an educated man, who thrived under the pressure of his father's iron fist; however, he was also restless. Similar, to a wild steed refusing to be tamed by anyone, Charles had never been tied down. But when his mangled body is retrieved from the lake, no one is sure what to believe. Some claim it was his father's mistress, in a crazed attempt to legitimize her own son. Many others insist it was Jared Pickering, an older man whose wife  participated in a secret affair with Charles for years.  

The truth is muddled by a stormy cloud of opinions.All Rights Reserved
