Summary

On a hot summer night in June 1987 in Nashville, Tennessee, a local church went up in flames. It wasn’t until after authorities discovered a body in the attic that alarm bells started ringing. This is the case of the tragic death of James Chester Matheny and the perpetrator that took his life.
