Ben Renick was known for breeding snakes, something most people are terrified of. From a farm in rural Missouri, he built a successful reptile business and a life with his family.

When Ben was found dead inside his own reptile facility, the assumption seemed obvious. But it was wrong. Ben had been shot eight times.

The investigation that followed exposed a case far more complicated than it first appeared.
