When beloved businessman Bob Eidman is slain in the middle of the day,

the town of St. Charles comes unhinged.

This was an execution. How cold-blooded do you have to be?

People were scared, not knowing who the individual was and where they're going to show up next.

The deeper police dig, the more secrets they uncover.

Bob was not the man people thought he was.

One of them's heading an affair.

He shows up dead.

That's a problem.

I mean, that's a motive.

It doesn't really matter who pulled the trigger.

What matters is who was pulling the strings.

How well do you know your neighbors, what lies behind the white picket fences?

Situated on the west bank of the Missouri River, the suburb of St. Charles sees itself as an oasis from the hustle and bustle of nearby St. Louis.

What's unique about us is, you know, we maintain that small town field, even though we're part of a major metropolitan area.

You still have the little white picket fences on the two-story homes. You have neighbors talking to each other.

It's a good place to live.

The town attracts many new residents,

We're the launching point of the Lewis and Clark expeditions.

We have a rendezvous every year that celebrates the launching of their expedition.
