By Evil Means

BY EVIL MEANS

The divorced Siegel living in Billings, Montana. Siegel, a drop-out from FBI school and a former police officer whose brother, a fellow officer, has recently committed suicide, is hired to probe the sudden personality transformation exhibited by teen-aged character Jennifer Kuntz. Siegel is initially dismissive of the Kuntz case, but her interest escalates when she discovers that her late brother (the suicidal police officer) had been named in a sexual misconduct complaint made by Jennifer. Siegel’s subsequent investigation takes her to Whispering Pines, a clinic for rehabilitating substance abusers. There she finds evidence of conspiracy and cover-up and further intrigue leading to local, well-to-do citizenry and corrupt police department.
