He was a friendly mortician.
She was a wealthy widow.
They were an unlikely pair.
The murder was just the beginning.
Now a community has to rethink everything they know about right and wrong to try to make sense of it all. The line between good and evil runs right through the heart of Texas in this new musical based on a true story.
