4 分钟On June 10th, 1983, the decomposing body of a well-dressed man was found in a desolate canyon near Los Angeles. John Doe #94 would soon be identified as missing variety show producer Roy Radin. He'd last been seen after meeting with a mysterious woman in a gold dress. Her name was Lanie Jacobs. Jacobs and Radin were obsessed with becoming Hollywood movie producers. And when their paths collided, it led them to a tantalizing film deal promising fame and fortune. But then, a twisted script unfolded, plunging them into a million-dollar cocaine and cash heist, a tangled web of lies, and ultimately – murder. The trail led investigators right to Hollywood's doorstep, linking former golden boy producer Robert Evans to the case and dredging up Radin's own troubled past. But the case turned ice cold. It would take more than five years of dogged pursuit by the L.A. Sheriff’s Department detectives, a secret undercover witness, and another murder almost 3,000 miles from Hollywood – to unlock the truth. This is the story of a doomed Hollywood partnership, a grisly murder and the search that stretched across the country for a killer – or killers. From Wondery, and the team behind the hit series Hollywood & Crime: The Dating Game Killer, The Wonderland Murders, Death of Starlet, and the Execution of Bonny Lee Bakley comes a six part series that dives into the dark side of Hollywood through a shocking murder – fueled by ruthless ambition and desperate dreams.

Lainey Jacobs had a pounding headache.
A trip to Vegas with friends on a private jet had been the perfect getaway.
But the endless supply of coke and top shelf liquor caught up with her.
Now all she craved was her own bed and sleep.
It was early Monday, April 4, 1983.
Her limo crept through the quiet neighborhood of Sherman Oaks, California, then stopped in front of her house.
Once she was inside, Laney kicked off her shoes.
She headed to the nursery to check on her baby, 5 month old Dax, still fast asleep.
Even her nanny, Miriam, hadn't stirred yet.
