The town of Paradise receives a tragic shock when the mayor is discovered dead, his body lying in an open grave on a property on the lake. It' s ostensibly suicide, but Jesse has his doubts. . . especially because the piece of land where the man was found is the subject of a contentious and dodgy land deal. Two powerful moguls are fighting over the right to buy and develop the prime piece of real estate, and one of them has brought in a hired gun, an old adversary of Jesse' s: Wilson Cromartie, aka Crow. Meanwhile, the town council is debating if they want to sacrifice Paradise' s stately character for the economic boost of a glitzy new development. Tempers are running hot, and as the deaths begin to mount, it' s increasingly clear that the mayor may have standing in the wrong person' s way.
