A Shane Scully Novel series.

Read by Scott Brick

It.s a few days before Christmas when Detective Shane Scully and his wife, Alexa, respond to a call in
the Hollywood Hills. The crime scene is the pristine backyard swimming pool of a once immaculate mansion
on Skyline Drive, the site of an infamous murder decades prior, in which a family was killed in cold blood
on Christmas Eve. In the ensuing years, the house has been shuttered and left exactly as it stood on that
terrible night.

Shane and Alexa arrive to discover the aftermath of a lavish party. The revelers have fled, leaving three
dead bodies, all shot with the same gun. One is acclaimed film producer Scott Berman. The others, a pair
of gorgeous women in their early 20s.

Scully is assigned to the case along with his new partner, Sumner Hitchens. Hitch has a reputation in the
department as a self-promoter; he sold the story rights to one of his cases to a film production company -
and he has the millions to show for it. Scully and Hitch begin to investigate, and the case looks to be
open-and-shut: The two young women were hired prostitutes, and there.s a security video of an angry husband
firing on all three. A simple case of revenge.

But there.s a catch: The detectives discover a single spent bullet casing that doesn.t match the rest.
From that single bullet emerges a story that spans 30 years - a tale of love, murder, suicide, and one of
the biggest financial frauds in L.A. history. It.s a story fit for the screen - and Hitch is determined to
get it there, no matter what it takes. But someone has gone to great lengths to cover up the crime, and as
Scully and Hitch get closer to the answer, they find themselves in a killer.s crosshairs. The case could
be the makings of a blockbuster Hollywood film - but only if Scully gets out of it alive.
