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 Easton Ellis's American Psycho."-Henry Flesh, Lambda Literary Award-winning author of Massage Hollywood, the City of Dreams. Jack had come here with one ambition: to become a star, by any means. He wanted to be like the people in the tabloids: Brad Pitt, Ben Affleck, Tom and Nicole. Instead, he entered a world seedier than anything he could have imagined, full of drugs and crime, whores, snuff shows, incest, deceit-and despair. Matthew Stokoe was born in England and is currently living in the Southern Hemisphere.
