"While New York City sizzles beneath a blanket of early summer humidity, the Karp family is
happily taking refuge in their renovated farmhouse on Long Island's north shore. Karp's battles
against the City's corrupt politicans are never-ending. His wife, Marlene, is training guard dogs
on their picturesque acreage; Lucy is enjoying her summer break from Boston College and playing the
part of the dutiful daughter, assisting with the running of the business and tending to her
rambunctious twin brothers." The tide quickly changes, however, when Marlene befriends her
beachside neighbor, Rose Wickham-Heeney, a northeastern aristocrat turned wife of West
Virginia coal mine union leader Ralph "Red" Heeney. Soon after the fun-filled weeks of family
barbecues and lazy afternoons with the Heeneys, the Karps discover that Rose, Red, and their
daughter Lizzie, have been brutally murdered back home in McCullensburg. Irresistible force
meets immovable object when the West Virginia governor appoints Karp as special prosecutor
to bring justice to the corrupt town, its union chieftan, and his band of merry thugs. Marlene
joins Karp as he searches for the killers and works to save his own family from an evil that
runs as deep as the mines that fuel it.
