The most hated man in the bottoms
bkoganbing30 November 2020
Hunter Van Leer plays a most hated man. He's the landlord owning several properties in Sparta's bottoms. We meet him doing a job of eviction and making the usual friends and influencing people. Van Leer has a a more lucrative sideline as a narcotics dealer.

One of his evictions is Chris Lobban's mother who is in a nursing home in a nearby town as Lobban now lives Chief Gillespie.

When the much hated Van Leer is murdered, the more affluent citizens of Sparta figure on a race riot. The blue line of the Sparta police find the real culprits with the cooperation of at least one 'public minded' citizen of the bottoms.

Slums. Everyone agrees it's a problem, but no one knows what to do.
