Inspector Heimrich searches for a hit-and-run killer in this intriguing mystery from the coauthor of the “excellent” Mr. and Mrs. North series (The New Yorker). Inspector M. L. Heimrich of the New York State Police may not have the flash of hard-boiled city detectives, but there’s no lead the intrepid investigator won’t follow until his every hunch is satisfied. For Inspector Heimrich, Jackson’s murder is personal, not only because the man was his friend, but also because the sole witness is his son Michael’s new girlfriend. The shaken girl says she saw a car back into Sam and then run him over to finish the job.
