This eight-part deep-dive from The Tennessean focuses on the 1989 murder of country music chart director Kevin Hughes, who tried to operate with integrity in a business full of sharks and criminals. The podcast features never-before published reporting of details of the crime that not only defines Nashville in the 1980s and 1990s, but shines light on a singer and one-time suspect who has demanded an apology from a detective who refuses to give him one. (Contains adult language.)
