The Boston Police Department, grappling with the high-profile nature of the case, turns to the seasoned private investigator Spenser for his expertise. Known for his sharp mind and relentless determination, Spenser delves into the murky depths of Hollywood's dark side, seeking to uncover the truth amid a landscape fraught with deception and danger.
