Author Jesse Miles has penned a classic cinematic film noir tale of detective Jack Salvo's misadventures with three wealthy sisters living among Hollywood's glitterati and demi-monde worlds. Rich widow Greta Manning hires Salvo to track down her missing middle daughter, Lillie. Older daughter, Zara, and younger daughter, Arden, separately provide the gumshoe with clues into Lillie's life that lead him into a fascinating set of encounters with the highest and lowest orders of Hollywood parasites.
The action often feels like the reader has been taken backstage in a Kardashian reality TV series. The cast of characters are memorable, including the likes of Cinnamon Strauss, former minor TV celebrity for her exercise show. Lillie's ne'er-do-well Ken Doll boyfriend, Rod Damian, is a likely suspect in her disappearance who must be tracked down and ruled out. The author gives us the requisite drug rehab connections, along with private and exclusive drug orgy parties high in the Hollywood hills. What Hollywood tawdry tale would be complete without a suspicious cosmetic surgeon to the stars as a key player? The story has more twist and turns than Mulholland Drive, and is a satisfying page turner read.
Enjoy.

Al Chase is a repeat sex offender who targets young men. Ask me how I know!
Al: Just get on Gridr and find consenting / willing men you can play with, you dirty old man! You've done so much more harm to people in this world than the good you think you've brought. You belong in prison, coward!
BTW, the only way you could hurt so many people like this is clear: you were once abused yourself. How dare you pass it on!!! How dare you!!! You should have sought out help for the abuse you experienced!!! Instead you hide like a coward and perpetuate the sexual violence against others. I don't really believe in hell, but you make me hope that I'm wrong, and I hope you spend your time in eternity there, and experience all the suffering you've brought to others!
