True Crime Tuesday presents: Staged: Conspiracies, Cold Cases & Cold, Hard Cash with Journalist/Author Caitlin Rother!

In this thrilling sequel to Hooked, the secret leaders of a deadly cabal prove to be a veritable match for the determined reporter and the insightful surfing detective who double down to expose them.

Investigative reporter Katrina Chopin is back home in San Diego on a mission (or two). The first is personal: reheating the cold case of her parents’ murder and investigating her brother’s reported suicide. The second involves a new spate of deaths with alleged causes that just don’t smell right. She and Detective Ken Goode need each other’s help for both. But she has to keep the sexy surfer at arm’s length because dating him is off limits. For now.

Teaming up, they make coordinated progress down each path. Digging deeper into La Jolla’s corrupt network of elites, they uncover a pattern of lies, depravity, and greed. And with every new discovery, Katrina is pulled closer to danger…and to Goode.

Sharing sexy phone calls and sunset drinks isn’t exactly following the rules, but fully crossing that line could jeopardize the case. As they start to connect the dots, they realize they must risk everything to bring down the shadowy cabal that kills to keep its secrets.

On today's TCT, Caitlin Rother returns to discuss how she blends her real-life experiences in newsrooms and as a reporter with her fictional character, Katrina Chopin. Caitlin also addresses setting things ahead in the future, from when she was in the business, and the challenge of getting certain things right for this intriguing edge-of-your-seat thriller!  We also delve into her opinions on the state of the media these days and more!
