Jeffty Kittredge is a small-time Hollywood con in deep debt to a shark with a need to collect. If he can just come up with a plan--or maybe even only a partner--Jefty is sure he'll be on his way to salvation. What he comes up with instead is Mona. The best-selling author of Everybody Smokes in Hell leads you to a place where desire has a body count, trust can take you down from point-blank range, and love is the biggest racket in town.
