L'immaginazione e la memoria storica di Pino Cacucci sono affollate di ribelli. Non sono necessariamente eroi a tutto tondo. Non hanno necessariamente il rigore ideologico di una dottrina o il vigore di una fede politica. Non sono necessariamente entrati nella fama che si trasforma in leggenda.

It is also the home of shooter Brenda Ann "I Don’t Like Mondays" Spencer, disgraced Congressman Randy "Duke" Cunningham, and San Diego County medical examiner-turned-killer Kristin Rossum.

Laguna: a place where a crazed killer has turned paradise into a Disneyland of depraved violence - with a fiery vengeance - and where homicide cop Tom Shephard unravels a grisly mystery. It reaches back across 40 years of sordid sex, blackmail, and suicide into the dark corners of his own past.

PI John Cooper's favorite actress was Melissa Bright, but she died much too young, and John can't accept the official version of how she died. He suspects foul play and sets out on his own to get to the truth.
