Summary

In 2013, an international tourist would travel to Los Angeles, California …alone. She checked into the iconic Hotel Cecil, but she would never check out. The Big City of Dreams, turned out to be a nightmare for two parents who would never get to see their daughter alive again. Elisa’s body was discovered in the most unlikely place one could imagine, and how she got there remains a mystery to this day.
