"Maggody, Arkansas, a town of 755 people, has gone "online". The high school's new computer lab has gained access to the internet and the town is in chaos. The high school kids are looking at online porn and stumble across images of some of Maggody's more prominent members in a variety of compromising positions. When a young woman is found murdered, police chief Arly Hanks is on the case.
Soon everyone has their own list of suspects. Neighbor against neighbor, friend against friend and it is up to Arly to find out who the real suspect is. At the same time, a wave of cyber crimes is hitting the small town and Arly must use all of her small town, low tech skills to combat the high tech cyber criminal and find the murderer in the process."
