The Bagpiper and His Brother (3): The Wiretap

In 1960, in St. Paul, something didn't look right with an office phone, and it leads back to Lloyd Brenna. By now, he has built a life that looks stable on the surface, a job, a home, a reputation, but there are cracks. A wiretap. A past he’s left behind. Behavior that doesn’t quite line up with the man people think they know. As Wallace Brenna settles into his own version of adulthood, Harold Pieper moves forward on a steady path. Then, in 1970, an IRS agent investigating Lloyd is shot. The Bagpiper and His Brother is written and produced by James Wolner, with additional research assistance by Mari Zoerb Hanson.
