[description]
February 1938, Los Angeles. FDR's New Deal is finally rolling. Hitler's
rolling, too; this time through Austria. But as Chief Detective for a quiet
burgh on the outskirts of L.A., you've got other fish to fry.
One gilt-edged society dame is dead. And now it looks like some two-bit
grifter is putting the screws to her multi-millionaire old man. Then you
step in, and the shakedown turns ugly. You're left with a stiff and race
against the clock to nail your suspect... unless you get nailed first!
Nobody said a sordid family affair like this was going to be a cinch.
Everyone from the knock-out heiress to the poker-faced butler may end up in
the slammer before it's over. Ahead of you is a Gordian knot of motives and
alibis. And the only testimony you can trust is that of your own eyes -
because you are The Witness.
