Read Lamb to the Slaughter Storyline:

A sunny evening, a tranquil garden and an old man brutally gunned down
on his doorstep. In the pretty and tranquil market town of Kirkluce a
proposed superstore development has divided the population in an
increasingly bitter war. The low-level aggression of bored youth that is
generally tolerated has become sinister. The bloodied carcass of a
sheep abandoned in the streets is more than just unpleasant vandalism
and teenage bikers, terrorising a woman to breaking point, are
impossible to control. When a second victim is killed in what seems a
random shooting, the fear in the town becomes tangible. DI Fleming will
not accept that the crimes are motiveless, but she struggles to make
sense of the two murders, when nothing makes sense any more and no one
will believe anything. Not even the truth.
