Synopsis

About the sheriff of a small and dreary New Hampshire town, whose life has never amounted to much. His job as sheriff consists mainly of running round after the town's business leaders. When a friend returns from a hunting trip claiming that the wealthy businessman he was accompanying was accidentally shot, the sheriff does not believe him and sees the incident as his chance to play an important role in uncovering a murder. His efforts have serious ramifications for his own disordered and dysfunctional existence.
