From award-winning novelist Arthur Herzog comes a true-crime tale of wealthy and poor, murder and retribution in a town rooted in self-denial. In Salisbury, Connecticut, the luxurious weekend homes of wealthy New Yorkers stand only a short distance from the dilapidated houses of the neighborhood working class, known as the "raggies". But this apparently calm and pastoral community has a sordid, evil underbelly. Feeling oppressed by their monetary and social status, the three Duntz brothers seek revenge on the wealthy upper class, and historical Salisbury becomes their goal. The brothers arranged flames to the Salisbury town hall, a 235-year-old sign of the town's proud heritage. But when Earl Morey confesses to seeing one of the brothers commit the crime, he is found shot to loss of life one early October morning. Driven to bring the murderer to justice, Lieutenant Adam Hiltz launches the largest, most complex inspection in the annals of the Connecticut Point out Police. However the wealthy are apathetic and the poor dread retribution from the Duntzes, who hamper rules enforcement's efforts to capture Morey's killer and additional entrench the department between wealthy and poor. A gripping true crime tale, A Murder inside our Town reveals the interested juxtaposition of the privileged and poor in small-town America.
