The Last Songbird (2023)
(Pacific Coast Highway Mystery, book 1)
Daniel Weizmann
"Propulsive and pitch perfect, The Last Songbird is a smart, fast-paced read about the costs of fame to both the spectacularly gifted and those left dazzled and dazed in their wake. In crackling prose, Daniel Weizmann masterfully takes the reader through the midnight precincts of LA to tell a gripping story of human fallibility - of triumph and failure, generosity and greed, love and disappointment - and the drive, against all odds, to set things right. A stunning debut."
