The iconic thriller series that inspired the upcoming streaming show
on Prime Video, in development now! BONUS: This edition contains an
excerpt from Jonathan Kellerman's Victims. The anonymous caller has an
ominous tone and an unnerving message about something “real dead . .
. buried in your marsh.” The eco-volunteer on the other end of the
phone thinks it’s a prank, but when a young woman’s body turns up
in L.A.’s Bird Marsh preserve no one’s laughing. And when the
bones of more victims surface, homicide detective Milo Sturgis
realizes the city’s under siege to an insidious killer. Milo’s
first move: calling in psychologist Alex Delaware. The murdered women
are prostitutes–except the most recent victim; a brilliant young
musician from the East Coast, employed by a wealthy family to tutor a
musical prodigy, Selena Bass seems out of place in the marsh’s grim
tableau. Conveniently–perhaps ominously–Selena’s blueblood
employers are nowhere to be found, and their estate’ s jittery
caretaker raises hackles. But Milo’s instincts and Alex’s insight
are too well-honed to settle for easy answers, even given the dark
secrets in this troubled man’s past. Their investigation unearths
disturbing layers–about victims, potential victims, and suspects
alike–plunging even deeper into the murky marsh’s enigmatic
depths. Bizarre details of the crimes suggest a devilish serial killer
prowling L.A.’s gritty streets. But when a new murder deviates from
the pattern, derailing a possible profile, Alex and Milo must look
beyond the suspicion of madness and consider an even more sinister
mind at work. Answers don’t come easy, but the darkest of drives and
desires may fuel the most devious of foes.
