The Cotton Factory in Memphis

Memphis, November 3, 1924. Cotton broker Ellis Grant is shot in his office chair on the second floor of the brokerage house on Front Street, the safe locked and untouched and the office door open to the stairwell. For three days he had been comparing the bale weights in his own book with the figures from the weighing room, and that same evening the season's weigh-in book presents different numbers than the press's record. The case sits unsolved in the archive until 1961, when the file is reopened and everyone who saw anything turns out to be dead.
