Snow before Halloween shocks the residents of tiny Park County, Tennessee. Sheriff Tony Abernathy is dealing with a multitude of minor issues when a charter pilot claims his passenger jumped without a parachute. After riding mules into the wilderness to collect the body, Tony and his deputy must travel to North Carolina to notify the widow. As the sheriff, Tony hates Halloween. Even so he never expected a valuable coffin and the body inside to go missing. -- provided by publisher.
