Robert M. Beatty Make for a Better Place

Annotation

Olive Clebo, wife of Dan Clebo chief investigator for the Piedmont, NC Police Department was brutally murdered by three released murderers that Dan had previously arrested. This vindictive retaliation was meant to send a warning to other police officers throughout the country. Dan pledged to avenge Olive's murder. He resigned from the police department, located and executed two of the three men. He left no clues that could legally be used against him. He did this to force a change in the law that would prevent anyone, including himself, from getting away with murder. While awaiting this legal change, Dan fell in love and remarried. He wanted to stay with his new wife, but if the law was adopted, he would be put in jail for the rest of his life. Now it was decision time. Which would it be?
