Opis

Philip Marlow and Lew Archer would recognize a kindred spirit in Jimmy Gage, reporter for "SLAP" magazine, troublemaker by trade and inclination, and the hero of Robert Ferrigno s sinuous new crime novel. While taking part in a Hollywood scavenger hunt, Jimmy meets Garret Walsh, a bad-boy movie maker in the truest sense: He s just been released from prison after serving seven years for the murder of a teenaged girl. But Walsh claims he was framed and is writing a screenplay to prove it. He wants Jimmy to help him peddle it, sight unseen.
The next time Jimmy sees the director, he s floating face-down in a koi pond and The Most Dangerous Screenplay in Hollywood has disappeared. Is Walsh a casualty of bad habits or has somebody crossed him off a list? And is Jimmy next? Combining nerve-shredding suspense and heat-seeking satire, Scavenger Hunt is an addictive read."
