Hannah Rosenbaum steht vor einem Rätsel. Sie hat ein Opfer, das offenbar von einem Scharfschützen getötet wurde, aber es gibt weder ein eindeutiges Motiv noch irgendwelche Spuren.

Clyde fought his own demons. He was seven when he'd watched his granddaddy get lynched. Mandy struggled for years with her own dark secrets. Maybe two halves could make a whole.
