From a chance observation made by his sister, Miles Rueda, the central character of the novel, realizes that something he has seen as a child many years earlier in the village of Corby Falls was most likely a prelude to murder. Everything now points to the recently deceased Dr. Biranek, a former neighbour of the Ruedas, and a prominent township resident. Miles casually talks about this long-ago crime around a restaurant table. His story acquires legs. What follows is unexpected, then trying, then threatening. A huge bequest left by Dr. Biranek to the township hospital is endangered, the largest employer in the region is about to close its doors, Miles is almost killed in a savage attack. He fears for his and his daughter's safety. The cause and center of it all, Miles is at a loss. Slowly he reaches an ethical dead-end.
