Fauna Hodel is a teenage girl who is given away at birth, and grows up outside of Reno, Nevada. Fauna lives more-or-less comfortably with the mysteries of her origin, until one day she makes a discovery that leads her to question everything. As Fauna begins to investigate the secrets of her past, she meets a ruined reporter, haunted by the case that undid him. Together they follow a sinister trail that swirls ever closer to an infamous Los Angeles gynecologist, Dr. George Hodel, a man involved in some of Hollywood's darkest debauchery, and possibly, its most infamous unsolved crime.
India Eisely stars as Fauna Hodel, a naive girl growing up in mid-sixties Reno, Nevada, who embarks on a quest to discover who she really is. Meanwhile in Los Angeles, Jay Singletary, Chris Pine, a soldier recently returned from the Korean war, now a hack reporter, covers a gruesome murder.
Jay can't let go of the story that ruined him all those years ago and remains convinced there's more to George Hodel (Jefferson Mays) than people think. Fauna arrives in LA, desperate to track down her family which includes the mysterious George Hodel.
Fauna (India Eisley) meets up with Corinna (Connie Nielsen) but suspects the woman of lies and hiding her real mother, Tamar. Jay (Chris Pine) meanwhile gets a harsh visit from the LAPD but this leaves him wondering how close he's getting to the truth.
As Jay (Chris Pine) edges closer to the truth, he begins to realise the MO for the case he's looking at has more than a passing resemblance to the Black Dahlia murder. Fauna (India Eisley) receives a mysterious invitation to a "Happening" and, hoping for further information about her mother Tamar, heads to it.
With an address in hand, Fauna (India Eisley) and Jay (Chris Pine) head to Hawaii to find Tamar. Fauna in the hope of finding some answers about who she is, Jay hoping to find answers about the Hodel story he wrote about that ruined his career.
As Los Angeles erupts in racial violence, Fauna decides she has no other choice than to confront George Hodel about his activities herself, while Jay is stuck in jail, again.
