About this listen
Enoch Deelan is now the mayor of Hope's End, and he is on the prowl.
Things are about to change for the town, and the first thing Deelan has to do is bring the killer of former Mayor Henry Simpson to justice. But that is easier said than done, especially when it looks like the girl he had once hoped to marry knows more than her pretty face would suggest, and thus, things can get pretty complicated.
But there is hope, even in Hope's End, although getting to the real truth, and to those issues in life that really matter turns out to be a pretty rough ride.
