Description
Los Angeles, 1963. John F. Kennedy is President, and Jan & Dean's "Surf City" is at the top of the charts.
Ryan Zorn, a 23-year-old Venice Beach surfer working in his uncle's detective agency, lands his first solo case when a divorced mother with plenty to hide hires him to find her missing son. The investigation turns into a case of blackmail and murder as Ryan is drawn deep into Hollywood's hidden past -- a past that involves the anti-Communist witch-hunts of the 1950s, and closeted gay stars.
From the decaying piers of Santa Monica bay, to the posh mansions of Beverly Hills, to a mysterious rustic retreat, Ryan navigates a city on the brink of change. The conservative era of blacklisting and conformity is in its dying days, and a new culture of experimentation and openness is just emerging. To solve the case, Ryan must confront his own personal demons, preconceptions, and homophobia as he untangles a deadly web of behind-the-scenes movie secrets.
