Curt Woods The Code of the West 1970’s

A small town police department sergeant is awakened when the chief goes missing. As his investigation progresses, it becomes apparent that the chief was murdered. Not only that, but the chief had been abusing his authority and hurting the town's people in ways he and his fellow officers could never have imagined. It's up to the sergeant to keep the department together, solve the murder, help the town heal, and move on.

After returning from being loaned out to another agency, Curt is anxious to get back to the quiet, small town police work that he really loves. Department personnel have changed while he was gone. One of the changes is a new dispatcher working behind the desk when he walks in that night.

A dead woman is discovered dressed up and posed on a baseball diamond. Sergeant Curt Woods is called to the scene and the investigation begins. Before long it becomes evident that the Tri-Cities has a demented serial killer on the loose that is taunting the local law enforcement agencies.
