Murder in the Capitol oleh Michael Foster

Newspaper reporter Bill Razer arrives very early at the state Capitol on a below-zero winter morning. A few minutes later, he is shot dead while preparing to write a scathing column aimed at hapless Governor Phillip Newman and legislative leaders. When no helpful clues surface, Sheriff Frank Himberger enlists former ace detective Jack Rogers, who has been on a self-imposed sabbatical due to the tragic loss of his wife eight months earlier.
