stevenikaye 's review for:
Outstanding nonfictional narrative weaving together the related stories of Leslie White (best known for his memoir Me, Detective) and David Clark (known, if at all, for his murder of crime boss Charlie Crawford). Along the way Rayner touches on everything from the life and career of Clara Bow to Einstein's friendship with Charlie Chaplin to the invention of hardboiled crime fiction. Every page had a new nugget I wanted to race off and find more details on.
Rayner provides a bibliography and notes on what sources he used for each chapter, so well worth the time for people interested in the history of Los Angeles in the 1920s and 1930s.
