NEVER IN A SMALL TOWN:
THE WHEELER COMMUNITY THEATRE MURDERS
by David Jensen
Never in a Small Town: The Wheeler Community Theatre Murders is an outlandish comedy centered around the small mountain town of Cripple Pines, Colorado, where, until recently, there has never been a single homicide. Now, it appears to be a common occurrence. People in town are dying, and someone needs to get to the root cause of the murders. An out-of-work East Coast News magazine reporter finds himself in town searching for the killer and the truth behind the murders. The reporter, Tate Longsword, meets a number of quirky town inhabitants while embarking on a twisted journey to solve the current disruptions in town, and on his journey, he may even learn the true story behind the death of Edger Allen Poe. Now, that’s a bonus!
