What Will Season 4 Be About?
During the final moments of season three, it was revealed that Sazz, Charles’ longtime stunt double, was murdered. The central trio will do a murder investigation into her death in season four and unravel the hidden truth in season 4. The murder mysteries in seasons two and three were introduced in the previous season’s finales, so season four will follow the murder of Sazz.
