Description
Introduction · · · · · ·
In Los Angeles, eleven women were murdered one after another, with strange and heavy makeup on their faces, so the murderer was called "the puppet master". Detective Bosch found and shot the suspect Church while on duty, and found the makeup that matched the case at the scene, confirming that the case was solved.
Four years later, Church's widow sued Bosch, saying he had killed the wrong person. Bosch, who had been a policeman for 20 years, was standing in the dock for the first time, but he firmly believed in his judgment. However, just after the opening statement, he received a notice: the police received a note signed by "Puppeteer", and according to the instructions on it, they dug out a blonde from the concrete of an abandoned house.
