LOST HILLS is a mystery that takes place in idyllic Malibu, California. It's hosted by New Yorker writer Dana Goodyear and it's about what happened when a man was shot while camping with his two young children in Malibu Creek State Park. The police followed a crumb trail of clues and arrested a drifter living outside in the hills. And that's when things get complicated.
