Book

Among the seriously wounded is Etha, wife of Sheriff Temple Jennings.

Temple has a hunch that this death is connected to the train wreck. But as he dissects the victim's life with help from the recuperating and resourceful Etha, he discovers a tangle of records that make a number of townsfolk suspects in the murder.
