The story
The vibrant and sprawling grounds of the 'Summer of Love' music festival, circa 1969, were abuzz with peace and music. Sunny Meadowbrook, the festival's charismatic and well-connected coordinator, was known by everyone as the person who could achieve anything. She was the vibrant, beating heart of the event, but her ambition often created complex and volatile relationships. Now, the Summer of Love festival is overshadowed by tragedy. Sunny Meadowbrook has been found dead, and the free-spirited atmosphere has turned to suspicion. Investigators must uncover which individual among the attendees harbored enough animosity to commit such a crime.
