520 1 $a"World-renowned Dartmouth professor Wilson Bledsoe is returning from a party celebrating his latest honor when he encounters a broken-down pickup on the secluded country road to his home. The next day, the discovery of his body with a vicious racist epithet carved into his chest leads to the quick arrest of two loathsome white supremacists. The local authorities seem ready to accept the case at face value as a racial hate crime. But the murdered professor's brother, FBI agent Sterling Bledsoe, has inserted himself into the investigation and isn't ready to buy into this pat solution. A look around his bother's lab and brief interviews with his students and colleagues pique Sterling's curiosity about Wilson's pet project: a nearly complete paper on the mysterious deaths of hundreds of local blackbirds."--BOOK JACKET.
