Hank Jasper was murdered, however, and the investigation into his death leads to the disruption of more than just one family. Hank's death touched the lives of others in ways both good and bad. Secrets would never have been revealed and lives would never have changed, but for the way this one man died. In order to find the murderer, Police Chief Mack Schofield has to untangle twisted relationships without revealing Hank's secrets too soon, or to the wrong people. Lilly, Tommy and Sam all have to come to terms with the knowledge of the real role Hank Jasper played in their lives.
