There are many twists and turns and ups and downs as the story moves toward its dramatic, shocking and totally unexpected conclusion.
The accidental hunting death of his eight-year-old son caused attorney Paul Dixon to go off on a wild tangent, costing him his marriage, his law career, and much, much more. He quit his position at the law firm where he was employed and left town after his divorce was final. He went into seclusion, changed his identity to Sam Little, and carefully conceived a plan to seek out the family members of those victims whose loved ones had suffered violence at the hands of the criminals in our society—criminals who had not received the full punishment of the justice system due to technicalities, loop holes in the law, crooked police, crooked judges, or slick-talking lawyers. Dixon's plans would be financed by those family members who felt they were cheated by the system, and the custom plans would be carried out by Sam Little's select few hand-chosen associates. This is a Meredith story of such mystery, suspense, and intrigue, that the reader will find it difficult to lay it aside.

Doris Hopkins was an extremely successful stockbroker who apparently fell into bad company. The events surrounding her murder were so bizarre and unbelievable that it was difficult for the police to see how to start a legitimate investigation. Quite by accident, a big-city detective fell heir to the crime and started the investigative process to try to solve it. Just as he started making progress, a string of murders with the same MO came to his attention. The winding path to solving the crimes led the detective on a multi-state investigation that unfolded a myriad of circumstances and weird people he'd never seen the likes of before. The powerful conclusion to the story leaves the reader at the same time both satisfied, but with a lingering question in his mind about whether it is all over or not.
