Silent witness : a novel / Richard North Patterson.

Summary:

It begins in 1967, in a small Midwestern town scarcely touched by the tumults of the decade. Seventeen-year-old Tony Lord, Lake City's star athlete, seems destined for great things. His driving ambition to move far beyond the narrow world of his parents and his hometown is precisely what attracts Alison Taylor, the beautiful and enigmatic daughter of the town's leading family, and it is what sets Tony apart form his two closest friends: Sam Robb - mercurial and charismatic, his only rival for athletic honor - and Sam's girl, Sue Cash, whose affection for Tony may mask something more. But suddenly everything changes. Alison Taylor is brutally murdered. Tony is the number one suspect. The town turns against him. His friendship with Sam is destroyed. When Tony leaves Lake city, vowing never to return, the loss of Sue is his sole regret. And it is Sue's urgent phone call, twenty-seven years later, that changes Tony's life once more.--inside cover.
