Synopsis

THE MAN WHO WOULD BE F. SCOTT FITZGERALD Wildly bestselling first-time novelist Cam Noyes writes with a lyrical voice like F. Scott Fitzgerald and looks like he leapt right out of a Ralph Lauren ad. The media's latest darling, he's having a ball running with the brat pack, posing for magazines, rolling in and out of beds, brawling in bars, swigging tequila, and snorting cocaine. But with such a busy schedule, Cam simply can't find the time to write his long-overdue second book. Enter Stewart "Hoagy" Hoag-ghostwriter of celebrity memoirs and reluctant amateur detective-to tackle Cam's tell-all expose of the dirty business behind megabuck book deals. But "cutthroat" takes on a whole new meaning as the bodies start piling up faster than the pages of the manuscript. If Hoagy doesn't act fast, there'll be no one left in publishing to tell the tale. Winner of the Edgar Award for Best Paperback Original! THE WOMAN WHO FELL FROM GRACE Ghostwriter Stewart "Hoagy" Hoag has been chosen to write the sequel to the Southern epic Oh, Shenandoah. And as much as Hoagy wants the book to succeed, someone else is willing to kill to keep it from being published.
