About this episode
In 1997, a charismatic young Frenchman called Christophe Rocancourt takes Los Angeles’ glitzy social scene by storm. Drawn by his glamorous lifestyle, celebrities, and wannabes vie to be his friend. But Rocancourt is a slick conman with a violent past, who specialises in parting his victims from their money. Detective George Mueller of the DA’s office is determined to catch Rocancourt. But the elusive fraudster is always one step ahead. When Rocancourt calls to taunt Mueller, things get personal. And soon after, the conman’s time in LA reaches a violent climax.
