2005 Shamus Award for Best Original PI Paperback
HE AGREED TO PROTECT HER FROM A VENGEFUL MOBSTER.
HE JUST DIDN'T REALIZE HE'D HAVE TO JOIN THE MOB TO DO IT.
Ray Corson came to Hollywood to be a screenwriter, not hired muscle. But when money's tight and a beautiful woman asks for your help, how can you say no?
But going up against a man like Lance Halliday takes more than just physical strength and the guts to use it. It takes friends in high places - or low ones. Soon, Ray finds himself on the payroll of Lenny Scarpa, L.A.'s chief drug supplier. Only Scarpa's hiding secrets even darker than Halliday's - and, as Ray discovers, Rebecca's hiding the darkest secret of all.
Genre: Mystery
