Episode 2

Why did limo driver Curtis Wexler drive straight from LAX to the home of the widow of one of the victims of the crash in the Sierra Nevada. And why do they now appear to dating?

Kathleen Turner stars as Detective Anna Caceres of the LAPD.

When Transaviation Flight 179 from Boston crashes into the Sierra Nevada on its approach to to LAX, killing everyone on board, it seems at first like a simple but tragic case of human error.

But when Caceres discovers that Curtis Wexler (Nathan Osborn), a limo driver who was due to meet a wealthy businessman from the flight, is now dating this businessman's widow, she gets the feeling there may be more to this disaster than first appears.

Hollywood Endings starts with the seemingly straightforward, if tragic, loss of the incoming plane. But as Caceres gradually unpicks a complex web of anger, lust and revenge, the story takes us to some dark and wholly unexpected places.

A Big Fish production for BBC Radio 4.
