Lies, Alibis, and Murder
A charity ball for the elite ends in disaster, leaving behind a trail of lies, alibis, and unanswered questions. Who murdered six prominent party attendees and blackmailed others into silence? Why have the authorities failed to bring justice and answers to the small community of Hill City for decades?A break in the case comes as a group of unlikely high school students stumble upon never-before-seen evidence for half a century following the tragedy. Together, the teens must put aside their own preconceived opinions and differences to unravel the truth that was hidden so long ago. Not sure who the teens can trust, their paths cross with a police detective and a retired FBI agent, who cannot find their own peace until the case is solved. This suspenseful tale benefits the entire community, finally liberating Hill City from years of mystery and motivates the teenagers to work together again for the next case that may be tossed their way.
