Atonement
The small, sleepy Minnesota town of West Clover Bottom is rocked when their beloved mayor and his wife are found floating in Clover Bottom lake, shot execution style.
Chief of Police, Archie Schultz, and his girlfriend, that pesky Ruth Ann Boyer, put aside their contentious relationship to solve the case. They're assisted by a bevy of small town characters--Deputy Jerome Dixon, who epitomizes every wacky TV sidekick, Ruth Ann's Uncle George, never far from is spiked coffee, Betty, the owner of the local diner, who Archie is convinced uses sawdust in her version of hamburger helper--along with a host of other eccentric individuals. Ruth Ann discovers a clue that seems to point to the reason for the killings. Was the mayor's bimbo wife behind the plot and it went wrong? Ruth Ann's questions are too close for comfort and she becomes the target of arson and suffers a severe injury. As Archie investigates this turn of events, he uncovers a real estate scandal that involves the city council.
Atonement is a tale of greed and scandal, laced with humor.
Follow Archie and Ruth Ann as they finally restore West Clover Bottom to it's tranquil state.
