Set against the backdrop of Mid-Michigan's transformation from untamed wilderness to a bustling hub, the narrative chronicles Clare's evolution during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Initially a lumber camp, the town flourished as agriculture and commerce took root, leading to the construction of brick buildings and a vibrant small-town life. The arrival of oil attracted notable figures and organized crime, culminating in a sensational murder that captured national headlines. By World War II, Clare had emerged as a unique and intriguing community in America.
