Murder Amongst Shadows is a tragic story that projects sadness, terror, and injustice. Bison is a small town with 350 people, that was situated near the Grand River in the South Dakota Plains. The people of Bison had constant faceoffs with death and terror. Families frequently lose their loved ones. It became a norm in the town. People get killed, young girls go missing daily, and no one dares to ask questions to request justice for fear of becoming the next target.

Detective Eddie, a daring, smart, and diligent man was the people's source of hope. He was good at his job and has a criminal instinct that enabled him to spot the bad guys easily. Eddie worked on restoring peace to South Dakota and brought justice to the families whose daughters were kidnapped.

Rachael on the other hand, was the heart of the people. She brought light into the community. She is a rich, vibrant, and brave young lady who made sure everyone in Bison tapped from her blessings. Rachael and her parents, Mr. & Mrs. Lawson were good people who went all out for their community. Unfortunately, Rachael's good deeds didn't prevent them from the cold hands of death. Sadly, good things don't last; and bad things happen to good people.

Tragedy befalls the family of Mr. & Mrs. Lawson as they lost their lovely daughter, Rachael. She was caught up in an evil nest and was brutally murdered by her supposed husband, Albert. Day suddenly turned night, fear crept in, tears-soaked clothes, and confusion filled the air, …it was indeed a great loss! The perpetrators of the evil act were in no time caught and faced the law. The family of the deceased sought fortitude and strength to be able to bear the loss of their daughter.
