The Springtime Murder Case — Florence Joanne Reid

The Springtime Murder Case

Gib Stranton finally messes up. He murdered two people in the parking lot of the Nelson Ledges State Park. But he has disappeared. FBI undercover agents swear they have seen someone who looks like Gib, maybe.

On the other hand, Gib is a well-known man. Hes a county truck driver, a snowplow truck driver, a known speaker in many schools on driving for the three neighboring counties to Portage County. Respected man. How can he be a killer too? Gideon wonders if anybody believes the reports.

But Gib isnt the only manhunt.

Someone is dealing drugs to kids in the county schools. Police and agents want to catch them at it, and the agents think Gib might also be a part of it.

Detective Gideon Granger is called out on murder cases. Is Gib still killing women, or is someone else involved, and able to hide out as well as Gib Stranton?

Who is behind the drug problem? Is it the Doctor, the Lawyer, or the Garage Manager? Or all three?

Will Sara Jane become more than Gideons partner? Will Jarry Faldare get up the nerve to pop the question to Maryne? Whats Earlles surprise? Are Marietta and her daughters safe? Can they be kept safe? Whos that Deputy hanging around Marietta? Whats he up to?
