When the body of one of Brad's longtime friends is found on the beach with two bullet holes in the back and Brad's card in his pocket, Brad becomes the lead suspect in the homicide. It will take some input from Raoul Espinoza and some soul-searching by the lead detective to save Brad's hide. In the meantime, the man who would be the next governor of California, Claude Longley and the new mayor of Santa Barbara, Roger Livingston, would both like to see Brad locked up in jail and the keys thrown in the ocean. Brad's quest to clear his name turns deadly when a blackmailer enters the picture.
In this the fourth episode of the Brad Stephens Series, the action really cranks up a notch!
