From the Back Cover

Paris Scott works nights at a convenience store and drives a '74 Gremlin. Recently dumped by his girl, he's what you'd call a loser. Even when the key to his dreams - the last master tape of a very famous, and recently deceased, rock star - falls into his lap (together with a small fortune in stolen drugs which he doesn't know he has), Paris might as well be cradling a neutron bomb. As the people who want the tape get dangerously confused with the people who want the dope, the ensuing madness stretches from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, leaving a trail of blood, bodies and broken hearts in the rear-view mirror.

From the acclaimed author of Love is a Racket, this savage black comedy chronicles the mayhem unleashed by one hapless young man trying, none too successfully, to make it in Hollywood. And no-one comes out clean in this raucous romp-and-stomp of a novel - proof, if ever it were needed, that everybody smokes in hell...
