Murder, corruption, and organized crime collide in the shadow of the Hollywood Hills of Los Angeles. LAPD detective Howard Drew has just landed his first high-profile case as a member of Homicide Special. The setting: a quiet mountain neighborhood in the Hollywood Hills known as Wonderland. The crime: a gruesome mass murder of four victims inside a two bedroom townhouse. Howard’s suspicions point towards a drug trafficking revenge plot, but as he delves deeper, he discovers evidence of something much more sinister. With the help of his investigative team, Howard follows the evidence trail from the seedy LA porn industry to a Sunset Boulevard strip club owner’s home in Studio City. But just when he thinks he has a solid lead, the case takes a dangerous turn. Corruption at the highest levels, bought-off witnesses, and jury tampering threaten to derail Howard’s investigation. As the stakes get higher and the obstacles seem insurmountable, Howard must navigate through a “garden of evil” to uncover the truth. But with his own life on the line, will he be able to solve the case and survive? Fans of police procedural thrillers like “The Black Dahlia” will be on the edge of their seats with this gripping crime novel.
