A scintillating novel of sex and murder in 50s LA

His two drives are brought together by the slaying of Maggie Cadwallader, a lonely woman whom Underhill slept with shortly before her death.
Using his inside knowledge, Underhill gets himself on the case, which is being handled by LAβs most fearsome investigator- Lieutenant Dudley Smith.
