    When a wealthy widow disappears sometime before Christmas, nobody in her small East Texas town thinks much of it. But when a popular local man is accused of killing her, authorities are shocked to discover the entire community is on the side of the suspect - not the victim. What would make an entire town root for a cold-blooded killer? A deep dive into the dark dynamic between the perp and the victim might hold the key.

Perfect.

Soothing voice, good suspense but no gore. Considerately written, interesting content... although I have to re listen as I fall asleep half way through most!
