Summary After being reported as dead in a German POW camp, former cop Jack Chesley returns to Los Angeles in 1946 very much alive, only to discover that his wife is dead--and her twin sister insists that it wasn't an accident. They set out to find her killer, a journey that takes them from the Hollywood studios and the boozy back corners of Musso & Frank to a Camarillo mental hospital and a shabby motel where blackmailers shoot dirty movies. In the spirit of such noir masters as Cain and Chandler, Dead Extra explores new shadows on the seedy side of midcentury Southern California.
