But they refuse to investigate further… She’d been told by a mutual friend that if anyone can get to the truth, it’s Henry Walsh.

She pleads with him to leave it in the hands of the Sheriff’s Office. But walking away was never Henry’s thing. And he knows once he has all the pieces, he’ll have no problem making them fit.
