โฆ Synopsis
Elvis is hired by a high-profile attorney to investigate the death of a megamillionaire's wife. The defense is basing its case on the theory that evidence was planted at the scene by a fallen star in the LAPD who could use a celebrity conviction as her ticket back to the fast track. When the people Elvis contacted begin dying, he senses something is terribly wrong.
