Ethan Harris is a showrunner for the popular TV crime drama The Murder Show. Unfortunately the writers’ strike is underway, and he know that he has to have a solid idea for the next season once everything is settled. Needing inspiration, he travels back to his hometown in Minnesota. He reunites with his childhood friend, Ro Greeman, who is now a local police officer. Upon learning his predicament, Ro suggests that he base his show’s next season on the cold case from nearly 20 years ago. Their friend Ricky died from a hit-and-run accident, but the driver was never identified. Ro believes that if the show focused on the case, someone might come forward with information. At first, Ethan is reluctant. But at this point, he’s willing to try anything. Once they start following clues and reuniting with friends and others about Ricky’s past, more information comes to light. Soon they realize their friends have secrets of their own, and Ricky might have been part of something that ultimately took his life. The Murder Show by Matt Goldman is a suspense/thriller novel in which Ethan and Ro search for the truth, but soon become a target for those who want to keep it hidden.
