Los Angeles, the City of Angels, home to Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Where
everyone is auditioning for a part, and where lies and deceit come veiled as
glitz and glamour. Join us, if you dare: view a vampire movie in our Forever
Hollywood Cemetery, or take a walk along the concrete banks of the L.A. River.
But watch your step. Murder brews within the micro-cosmic homeless
communes that call it home and sometimes riffs on melodic waves from the jazz
street musicians just down the block. Twelve stories of mystery, murder, and
mayhem, from the authors of Sisters In Crime/Los Angeles, that will send you
scrambling for a bus ticket home. But watch your back. As they say… “Nobody
leaves L.A.”
