Marshall Karp has been writing for years first in advertising, then stage and screen and now he has finally turned to novels. This is his second outing for a new detective duo, Lomax and Biggs, who bounce off each other with their witty wisecracks and thirst for catching the bad guys. A welcome new, quirky voice in the crime/thriller genre.
Barry Gerber is one of the most powerful - and hated - men in Hollywood. Turning up dead in a garbage can brings him under the eyes of Detectives Mike Lomax and Terry Biggs and his wasn't a pretty way to go. Just two days later another despised actor bad-boy is found murdered in the same sadistic manner.
Now, Lomax and Biggs know that there's no business like show business, but that was before the A-Listers were getting killed off like extras. Wading through a list of suspects as long as the credits of the latest blockbuster and a number of leads to match, they have to race to prevent another Hollywood hot-shot getting the cut.
Marshall Karp's writing career has spanned a wide range of fields, from advertising and marketing to television, screen, and stage. Karp lives in the US.
