Show synopsis

A Rock’n’Roll Murder Mystery – Full Cast Audio Drama set in 1978.

Guitar superstar, Rhett Liedecker dies at 33. Murder, says L.A. County Sheriffs. Rhett’s very valuable guitar is missing too. The Sheriffs say it may be the murder weapon. Was it a drug deal gone bad? Was it the dangerous cult Rhett attacked in a radio interview? His wild step-daughter and her addict boyfriend? His disco queen wife who was outgrowing him? Or his ex-wife, the record company CEO who kept Rhett on a string? Maybe his “roadie for life”, whose secret love for Rhett was no secret? Then there’s the bullet hole in the headboard. The missing Colt .45. It’s rock’n’roll. And it’s murder. Whodunit?
