Scent of Evil

When the body of a fast-living young stockbroker is found in a shallow grave, suspicion first falls on a cuckolded policeman. Lieutenant Joe Gunther investigates the increasingly bizarre details of the crime, but he¿s too far behind events to prevent a second murder. Indeed, whoever is responsible always seems to be a few steps ahead, as if there¿s a leak in the police force. Sweltering August heat does nothing to calm the increasingly agitated town selectmen, who demand results.
