On the afternoon of August 19, 1997, John Harrigan-owner and
publisher of the News and Sentinel newspaper in Colebrook, New
Hampshire-arrived at his building to find the woman he loved lying
dead in the parking lot. Lawyer Vickie Bunnell had been shot and
killed by an itinerant carpenter wielding an assault rifle. By
then, three more people were already dead or dying. More mayhem was
to ensue in an afternoon of plot twists too improbable for a novel.
The roots of the incident stretch back twenty-five years, with
tendrils deep in the history of New England's North Country. These
bloody events shocked America and made headlines across the world.
Hundreds of local citizens became unwilling players in the
drama-friends and colleagues of the dead, men and women who were
themselves real or potential targets, along with their neighbors in
law enforcement-but the town and its inhabitants were never passive
victims. From the first shot fired that day, they remained
courageously determined to survive. This is the story of that town,
those people, and that day. In the Evil Day is a moving portrait of
small-town life and familiar characters forever changed by sudden
violence.
