Helter Skelter. 1969’s Summer of Love came to an abrupt end when a group of hippies killed seven people -- actress Sharon Tate and four others at Tate’s home, plus a married couple. Here we meet Jack Middleton, an aging LAPD Detective who is convinced The Beatles’ White Album hides clues to these ghastly murders. He is led into the ‘60s underworld of Black Panthers, Hell’s Angels, and psychedelic sexed-up rockers.
