- A young widow asks Mike to look into the apparent suicide of her husband, who died in prison. Mike enters the prison to investigate, and discovers evidence that he was actually murdered. A convict that Mike had sent to jail is now the "Head of the Yard", running the other inmates like a mob-boss from inside the prison walls, intent on getting revenge on Longstreet. Mike must use all his wits to solve the murder and stay alive.—widereceiver
- The official report has twenty-one year old petty criminal Harold 'Boot' Singer, an angry young man, having committed suicide by hanging while in prison. His wife, Laura Singer, believes he was really murdered, which Mike is investigating with the full cooperation of the Federal Bureau of Prisons and prison authorities. Mike decides to help as she is a young now single mother with no money, the $10,000 life insurance which she could use and cannot collect if Boot did commit suicide. The investigation entails Mike spending extended time at the prison. After spending time at the prison, Mike does begin to suspect that Boot was indeed murdered, which could place Mike's life in danger at the hands of the murderer, with those perhaps complicit in hiding that fact wanting him gone. Mike also learns that there is scuttlebutt in the prison yard that Bobby Karp, a man Mike sent to prison five years ago who he did not know was incarcerated here and who is "Head of the Yard" amongst the inmates, is out to get Mike for what he did to him. Bobby's revenge and Mike's investigation may end up being associated in that people want Mike out of the prison, some like Karp preferring if it was in a coffin.—Huggo
