| Summary |
"Former Detroit homicide detective Edwin Blake broke into show business as a script consultant on cop movies. Now living in Los Angeles five years later, Blake is suffering from clinical depression, is no longer in demand in film and TV - and money is short. But things look up when Blake gets a call from wealthy, oddball producer, Jason 'JP' Perry, telling him he wants to hire him for a future cable TV series . But there's a catch. First he wants Blake to locate the missing ex-wife of a 'friend of a friend' from Chicago. Blake will be working for free on a promise - a typical Hollywood hustle. But Blake's not the only one on the case. Hired gun Warren Poole has also been contracted to find the woman. When a corrupt Hollywood producer, an ex-cop with a conscience, and a career criminal without one all have the same quarry, trouble is bound to ensue. And it does, with remarkably satisfying results, thanks to Blake's girlfriend, Carla, a former roller derby queen who has turned more than her own life around. Filled with rich characters both easy to love and hate, BELOW THE LINE skewers Hollywood in a deliciously fresh way." -- Provided by publisher. |
