Description

From award-winning novelist Arthur Herzog comes a true-crime story of wealthy and poor, murder and retribution in a town rooted in self-denial. In Salisbury, Connecticut, the lavish weekend homes of wealthy New Yorkers stand just a short distance from the dilapidated houses of the local working class, referred to as the “raggies”. But this seemingly calm and pastoral community has a sordid, evil underbelly. Feeling oppressed by their economic and social status, the three Duntz brothers are seeking revenge at the wealthy upper class, and historical Salisbury becomes their target. The brothers set fire to the Salisbury town hall, a 235-year-old symbol of the town’s proud heritage. But if Earl Morey confesses to seeing some of the brothers commit the crime, he’s found shot to death one early October morning. Driven to bring the murderer to justice, Lieutenant James Hiltz launches the largest, most complex investigation in the history of the Connecticut State Police. But the wealthy are apathetic and the poor fear retribution from the Duntzes, who hamper law enforcement’s efforts to capture Morey’s killer and further entrench the division between wealthy and poor. A gripping true crime tale, A Murder in Our Town reveals the curious juxtaposition of the privileged and poor in small-town The us.
