Edwoena Carrington, of the Las Vegas Carringtons, is a vice cop, thrown into the case of a lifetime when a mysterious man, known as Mark Twain by the prostitutes he hires, begins killing the girls. Is he a modern day Jack the Ripper? Where does he come from?Quickly, Eddie and her ex boyfriend, Homicide Detective Bart Schultz, establish the man's true identity; Mark Swain III of one of the most wealthy families in Maine. The game begins with her traveling to Maine, where she discovers her mother was born. She meets relatives while in town to extradite Swain to Las Vegas for questioning, and the secrets continue to unfold.
Greenville, Maine is the quirky town she must learn to navigate. It's run by timber barons, it's full of moose, and there are Swain family secrets galore. Eddie eventually discovers, not only is she from local stock, but she's part of the Swain family timber dynasty as she is Mark Swain III's half sister.
Enacting an arrest warrant becomes a labyrinth of interdepartmental red tape as the murders continue. Wealth, mileage from the Canadian Border, personal and professional loyalties continually delay what should have been a simple arrest.
As Eddie Carrington deciphers more and more about the crimes and the man who commits them, her world turns upside down, leaving her the lone recipient of their father's estate and the only person who can deal with the now life and death situation created by the timber magnate in the north woods of Maine in a bizarre little town called Greenville.
