Celebrity and crime pay off big time for an American sociopath in Paris in one of the great joys in new noir fiction (Los Angeles Review of Books).
Dr. Crandall Tayloror rather the actor who plays himis enjoying a cushy new life in the City of the Lights where his nowcancelled American soap opera has become a prime time retro cult hit. This newfound stardom isn't wasted on him. Anxious to keep his brutal past a secret from fans, he's enjoying all the fruits that fame has to offer: adulation, entrée into the trendiest clubs, and sex. What he really wants is to fund a feature film.
Crandall uses his charm and intellect to draw into his narcissistic web four women: a horny network executive; an internet porn star; a bookish university student with a nasty bent; and the fetching starlet wife of an arms dealer. Crandall accepts both the crime lord's cash and his beautiful wife's advances. Big mistake. Now Crandall must channel his violent, megalomaniacal dark side just to stay aliveand on the run.
From the national bestselling author of The Ice Harvest comes an ingeniously twisty oldschool noir along the lines of James M. Cain (Spinetingler Magazine). With it, the mad, bad, and dangerous to know . . . quintessential American huckster . . . and in Phillip's sly, deft hands we find ourselves sinking down eagerly with him, glorying in the beautiful muck (Edgar Awardwinning author Megan Abbott).
