Trouble is on the way when the corpse isn't even cold and Hitch is already on the scene. Before the police. It's murder - a kitchen knife in the back - and the apparent killer wants Hitch to scoop up the body and dump it into an unmarked grave. Our boy might play fast and loose in other aspects of his life, but stupid he is not: He's not about to get dragged into this mess. But it's too late. The police get wind of Hitch's presence at the early morning murder scene and they want answers - answers that HItch can't readily provide.
