1996 Edgar Award for Best First Novel (nominee)
Twenty-nine-year-old Kieran O'Connor's life is messier than his studio apartment in Venice. He's being evicted. He prefers hanging out at his ex-girlfriend Claudia's coffeehouse to traveling in the Hollywood fast lane. Claudia's currently seeing a hot young female director ("I was less annoyed she'd left me than I was that she'd taken up with someone in the industry"). So when Kieran finds Hollywood's newest player, producer Monica Slezak, shot to death in the bathroom at a glittery industry banquet, he sees his chance to get off the entertainment beat and into hard news, especially since he's the first one to get a look at the suicide note.
