The Motive Wilson

By Nick Colomb and Calvin Baker

Book Overview

A federal financial-crimes investigator is murdered after leaving her brother one warning: Don't chase the people. Follow the pattern.

Investigative journalist Anthony McGraw follows that warning to Wilson, Kentucky-a military town where family power, political influence, union loyalty, defense contracts, and old violence have overlapped for generations.

At the center is the decades-old murder of Charlotte Johnson, a case everyone believes was solved. The official story says six shots and one killer. The surviving evidence says otherwise.

As Anthony reopens the Carter file, every interview reveals a different version of Wilson-and every answer threatens people who have built their lives around the same buried decision. To discover who killed his sister and why, Anthony must untangle the motives beneath the town's public history before the pattern closes around him.

THE MOTIVE: WILSON is a layered investigative crime thriller about family, power, memory, and the dangerous difference between a solved case and the truth.
