In the gripping episode "Carlsbad: Danger in the Desert" from season 3 of City Confidential, we are transported to the arid and seemingly tranquil city of Carlsbad. This sun-drenched desert oasis, located in New Mexico, is known for its stunning landscapes and thriving tourism industry. However, beneath its idyllic façade lies a dark secret that threatens to plunge Carlsbad into chaos.

A prominent local physician, Dr. Mary Sullivan, is found brutally murdered in her Carlsbad home. The entire community is shocked by the heinous crime, and speculation runs rampant over who could have committed such an act.

With each revelation, the line between suspect and victim becomes increasingly blurred, and Parrish must navigate a treacherous path to find the truth.
