When a couple of young Indianapolis businessmen fail to show up for work in December of 1971, their secretary grows concerned as the day goes on, and a friend volunteers to swing by their house to check up on them. He never could have expected the carnage he would find inside, or how it would set off one of the strangest investigations in Indiana history. Was the perp the jealous partner of one of the men's many romantic conquests? A businessman with a grudge? A contract killer hired by the Mob to send a message? Or even by the White House itself?
