Homicide police detective, single mother of a teenage
daughter, and lover to her partner Jim Kissick, Nan Vining
wishes that life was a little more serene, more like it is
at Georgia Berryhill’s Malibu Canyon compound—or like it’s
supposed to be there, anyway. But three bizarre deaths
have brought Vining and Kissick through the exclusive
gates of this healing ground for the well-heeled. First
there’s the double homicide of a celebrity private eye and
his nude, drugged-out lover. Then there’s the inexplicable
drowning of a Pasadena socialite. Georgia Berryhill—
charismatic self-help guru to the stars—is one link to
both investigations. A second link is Vining’s own mother,
who was a friend to one of the victims and was being wooed
by another. Now A-listers, wannabes, lost souls, and
keepers of long-hidden secrets all converge at the
Berryhill compound. Some search for love and happiness,
while others come for murder.
