Plot teaser

Working on "first murder's" outline. Here's a plot teaser I came up just now on IRC:

23:23 <ibid> there's two young men who rivalled over a young woman,
              one of them made her husband and subsequently killed
              her.  the rejected one becomes an amateur
              detective/prosecutor against the killer, while the
              killer believes the rejected one really caused her death
23:24  <ibid> also about exploring the local judicial system
23:24  <ibid> and generally about establishing a new colony
