Cop-turned-lawyer-and-investigator Stone Barrington ventures out to the west coast and out on a limb in this "stylish whodunit" (Detroit News). 'L.A. Dead' is filled with murder, and romance too. It's from the bestselling author of 'The Run' and 'Worst Fears Realized.'
Stone's trip to Venice with a fiery Mafia princess is cut short by a frantic phone call from half a world away. A celebrity murder has Los Angeles in an uproar and Stone's former flame is pining for his help in more ways than one!
