Publisher's Synopsis
Hollywood, the City of Dreams. Jack had come here with one ambition: to become famous, a star - in exactly what way, he didn't care. In his second novel, Matthew Stokoe proves himself a worthy heir to the great tradition of California noir. Brutal and unflinching in its depiction of violence and sex, his book is like an unholy hybrid of Raymond Chandler's best work and Brett Ellis's American Psycho.
