Loser's town
a novel of Hollywood
by Daniel Depp
The patience of private investigator David Spandau, an ex-stuntman familiar with the ins and outs of Hollywood is almost sapped when he's hired to protect actor Bobby Dye from a blackmailing scheme gone wrong. Dye--young, brash, and on the verge of becoming a major star--has been set up by gangster Richie Stella, a nightclub owner and drug dealer with dreams of becoming a Hollywood producer. And he has a movie perfect for Bobby; problem is, it's the worst script anyone's ever read. But Richie is not easy to say no to, and when he retaliates, the game gets a little more deadly for more than a few of its players.

Work Description
David Spandau, former stuntman and sometime cowboy, makes his living as a private investigator. His current assignment is Hollywood "it" boy, Bobby Dye, who's been receiving threatening letters. Spandau figures out Bobby's facing another threat—one that could ruin his career just as it's getting started. Loser's Town is gritty noir fiction, but also a Hollywood-insider novel written by someone who knows the town and the industry intimately.
