The Windfall Sheriff

Millie Boyd is up for re-election as Sheriff of the beautiful resort area Mountain County. It seems there will be some shuffling in the leadership of the small City police departments come election time and Millie is deeply involved. At the same time, it seems her re-election is a near certain thing. She is after all a folk hero, two times State Police Chief of the Year, and is known and respected by everyone in the County. Yes, she seems a shoe in. Then just before the election, a series of murders of well known residents occur.

The murders seem to be random, brutal and without motive. The murders are big news and questions are raised as to whether the Sheriff still has what it takes to solve these serial murder cases. The talk has resulted in a challenger stepping forward to run against Millie. The question becomes will Millie solve the murders in time to save her re-election. Millie faces the challenges, both political and investigative, head on. She does it with the tenacity of a political bulldog and the nose of an investigative blood hound. The mystery of the murders must be solved and fast.

Little does Millie know that is the least of the challenges she will face. There is a foul wind coming her way.
