Part 2 of 3: Kill the Body and the Head Will DieWhile investigating the disappearance of Duke David Oberg, McBlack follows the clues to a dog park and a monster truck sales yard... but after tangling with a gang of redneck triads and a mixed municipal soccer team, the bodies are piling up faster than the clues. The case is not at all what it seems, but suddenly McBlack has bigger problems: an old enemy has rolled back into town and it's all Old Smiley can do to keep his head on his shoulders.
