A family of four was brutally murdered in Holcomb, Kansas, in 1959. Perry Smith and Dick Hickok were convicted and killed for the crime, and the murders, as well as the investigation and solution, formed the subject of Truman Capote's masterwork, In Cold Blood.But what if there was a third killer who went unknown? What if there was another family, likewise murdered, who happened to cross paths with this gang of criminals, despite the fact that their death is still unsolved? What if Dick Hickok left a written confession detailing his actions?
Brigid Quinn, a retired FBI agent, and her husband Carlo, a former priest and university professor, are trying to enjoy this new stage in their lives. However, a relic from Carlo's days as a prison chaplain--a handwritten document stowed away undiscovered in a box of Carlo's old things--has become a target for a man on the run from his past.
