description: Candidates are off and running in the New Hampshire Presidential Primary race. Hugh Quint goes to a coffee to meet front-runner Freddy Foster and lands in the middle of a bizarre murder scene. When backwoods political watchdog Garth Mackey stumbles on a second body, the ex-Boston officer agrees to investigate the fast-talking pack of suspects. Dark-horse Willie Dowd trots his rally up Mount Monadnock, runs into spin-doctor Carla Unger, and springs into the national limelight. Then salacious photographs drag Rebecca Casey and Freddy Foster in the dirt. Boy-on-the-bus Andy Hoyt jockeys for a scoop and bets are on that he'd kill for a Pulitzer. Hugh's running a dead heat nearly to the finish. But with a few tricks of his own, and help from his mole Proctor Hammond, he out-stumps the cleverest of them.
