In Tulsa, bookseller and self-styled "truthstorian" Lee Raybon doubts that Dale Washberg's death was a suicide, right after publishing an exposé on the Washberg family, and starts digging into it himself.
Starring Ethan Hawke, Keith David, Ryan Kiera Armstrong
A shaggy noir for viewers who would rather hang out with a city full of oddballs than follow a tight mystery. Ethan Hawke plays Lee as charming and hapless, a man who walks out of an estate sale with a first-edition Jim Thompson novel, a note hidden inside, over the widow's objection. Then he sells a stolen painting to buy more of the books.
The plot wanders by design, with side characters and locations getting room in every hour rather than a case a week.
