Case closed. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOr is it? Jack Dunne is a writer of mystery fiction and desperate for a second bestseller. He has decided to base his book on the cold case, sticking to the maxim: write what you know. Jack knows the identity of the victim, and, more incriminatingly, intimate details of that fateful night's fraternity 'freak off'. He is risking life and livelihood by re-opening the case and making it central to his plot. But before he submits a completed manuscript, he must know everything the police know. Everything. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis much he does know about the game he's calling 'cold case chess': he is the King, he beds the Queen, his uncle is a Bishop - literally - but who is the Knight who saved his life that decisive night, and how many rooks and pawns who strode the board are alive and might talk? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eUnder pressure from his publisher to complete the manuscript, in need of the second half of his advance, Jack feels he must move fast to learn the facts before being checkmated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Panati\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798305383584\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/30\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d","brand":"Charles Panati","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48851095322879,"sku":"9798305383584","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-town-where-it-happened-charles-panati-9798305383584","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
