Book Overview
In 1926, a dear friend of young Tom Hickey's is lynched. Police as well as the L.A. Times and Examiner ignore the crime. Tom, a former USC fullback, now a bandleader and guardian of a wild kid sister who frequents speakeasies, gets outraged. He challenges a brutal police chief, publishers Harry Chandler and William Randolph Hearst, fanatical devotees of evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson, and the Ku Klux Klan. In spite of the danger, he gives up music, quits his day job, pawns everything to support himself and his sister, and becomes a private detective. If nobody else is willing to take on the powerful and corrupt, Tom will. (119) "Kuhlken mixes historical and fictional characters with ease." Publishers' Weekly
