Cincinnati, October 1967 -- Eugene Geller, the handsome and popular Cantor of Rockdale Temple-located in the racially tense Avondale neighborhood of Cincinnati-disappears without a trace during a night of rioting in the "long, hot summer" of 1967. Was Gene a casualty of the riot? Has he run away with one of his paramours? Or has he been the victim of foul play by his long-suffering wife or an angry ex-lover or a jealous husband?
