A True Crime anthology featuring some of the more mysterious murders of the past twenty years... The Torrey Pines beach killings are two of the most hideous, savage murders in California history, made seemingly worse by the beautiful location at which they took place. But, as time has failed to heal the wounds torn into families by these horrific events, it now seems as though the crimes that took place could have claimed a third, and maybe even a fourth, victim.By day, the beautiful, stunning beach in San Diego, Southern California is a hot spot for sun seekers, surfers and those looking for a walk by the sea. The glittering ocean is contained, it appears, within the magnificent nearby cliffs and the long, wide soft sandy beach sneaks slowly towards an esplanade, complete with inevitable parking lot. The arches of a wide bridge provide a touch of privacy and quiet. Life towers offer safety from the waves.As wonderful as Torrey Pines is during the day, at night it changes. The dark brings out shadows. And those shadows became a lot deeper after the night of August 12th, 1978.
