Wanda Wary, a black orphan, is a senior at Knute County Consolidated High School, class of 1955, in predominately white Western Kansas. Her work/study program has her in school every morning and working as a nurse's aide at a rest home in the afternoons.
One of the patients, Jack Jameson, is a quadriplegic 22-year-old who served as a U.S. Marine in Korea, where he was shot in the neck severing his spine. Wanda has set up a phone he can manage. It is listed to Indetectable Inquires, with a P.O. Box address, under "Private Detectives" in the yellow pages.
A woman named Laura calls because she has been raped. She did not call the Sheriff's Office because she does not want her husband or children to find out.
With high anxiety, the partners at Indetectable take their first case.
Further details of this gripping crime drama would spoil the surprises for the reader.
