But it gets stranger from there. The victim was a sixteen-year-old girl who was visiting the resort for the week and Abel is convinced that a member of his own family is involved. He asks that Billy and Ethel investigate each one, and to use any means needed to find the answer. Again, Billy and Ethel agree.It's as the case unfolds that things continue to go from odd to downright bizarre.
