Our take on Mystery P.I. - Lost in Los Angeles
A 17-hour deadline gives the hidden-object investigation a fixed time limit before the Hollywood premiere.
What is Mystery P.I. - Lost in Los Angeles?
A film vanishes just before its Hollywood premiere, leaving the investigator 17 hours to recover it.
The case spans 25 Los Angeles settings, from Malibu Beach and Rodeo Drive to studio sets and famous Hollywood sites, with more than 2,100 concealed items to locate.
