Detectives McGuire and Cortes investigate a gruesome homicide in Long Beach, California, a city marked by homelessness, drug abuse, and gang violence. With little to go on but their decades of experience, they must navigate the complex web of personal and gang-related motives to identify and arrest their suspect. When a severed hand is found in the desert nearly 100 miles away, their investigation crosses jurisdictions and becomes even more challenging. But McGuire and Cortes are determined to connect the dots and bring the killer to justice, no matter how long it takes. Saint Bloodbath is a true crime story that explores the lives and experiences of the victims, their peers, and the investigators who sought to bring a murderer to justice. It is a story of courage, determination, and the power of community in the face of tragedy.
