Synopsis

A man is found dead in a backyard in Tucson, Arizona, but the police find it difficult to find any motive for murder. The victim had recently lost his wife and three children in a car crash. One might think from his circumstance that it was suicide, but if so, what had happened to the gun? Frank Ramos thinks he knows the answer, but can he persuade anyone of the truth?
