It is an era of dazzling glamour and deep corruption — and no one knows both sides of it better than Wyatt Earp.
Legendary lawman Wyatt Earp is 78 years old and fighting his greatest battle—time. Working for film directors like John Ford, the man who was once America's most celebrated marshal now spends his days as a technical advisor on Westerns... a living shadow of what he used to be.
Every staged shootout is a reminder of how far the real thing has receded into myth— until his 13-year-old neighbor, Dean Carlisle, knocks on the door of his home. Dean's mother was found murdered, the investigation buried by corrupt cops. The boy pleads with Earp. He has no one to turn to. He offers the legendary lawman everything he's got to find his mother's killer—four coins totaling 32 cents and his yo-yo.
What begins as an unlikely contract between a fading icon and a grieving child pulls Wyatt into the darkest corridors of the film industry — where Sam Warner's revolutionary Vitaphone sound system is a pawn in a high-stakes financial conspiracy. Here, the line between studio politics and cold-blooded murder runs straight through the boardrooms of men like Joseph P. Kennedy Sr.
With the future of Hollywood hanging in the balance, Wyatt finds himself pitted against Vera Krasova — a woman of lethal beauty and volcanic ambition who makes the outlaws of the Old West look like gentlemen.
Four Coins, a Yo-Yo, and a Gun is a historical mystery-noir of the first order: richly researched, propulsively plotted, and anchored by an unlikely detective duo.
An old lawman who has nothing left to prove. A boy with everything left to lose. And a killer who's been hiding in plain sight since the first reel.
Perfect for fans of James Ellroy's L.A. Confidential and Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe mysteries — and readers who love their history with a loaded chamber.
