A Benjamin Justice Mystery, Book 2 - There’s a Hollywood one never gets to see on Oscar night; the Hollywood of wannabes, has-beens, and never-weres. It is this hidden Hollywood that Benjamin Justice finds when he accompanies Alexandra Templeton - the go-getting young journalist - to an open house at the home of the well-known teacher of screenwriting, Gordon Cantwell. Templeton is on assignment, but the body she finds in Cantwell’s garden isn’t part of her story, and Justice suspects that the death isn’t natural, either. The dead man is Raymond Farr, born Reza JaFari, and as it turns out, almost anyone at the party might have wanted him dead. The quintessential Hollywood deal maker, Farr’s credentials were as phony as his name, and his scruples were as nonexistent as his credits. Justice - ever the investigative journalist, however reluctant - begins to nose around, and unearths a tangled web of relationships that lead him, finally, to the killer. Along the way he also reawakens a part of himself, the part he had kept buried, or preserved in alcohol, ever since the death of his lover from AIDS seven years before.Simple Justice, the first in the series, was awarded an Edgar by Mystery Writers of America for Best First Novel. Revision of Justice has been revised for this second edition release.'A tightly paced page-turner ... must reading for all serious mystery fans.' - Booklist (starred review)'A stark, absorbing and seemingly authentic tour of the Hollywood fringes.' - Publishers Weekly'A complex mystery with a million characters and enticing dialogue.' - Los Angeles Times'Politically pungent, exactly observed, and conceding little comfort, Wilson is heir to the shockingly unsentimental vision of Patricia Highsmith.' -Michael Bronski, Out Magazine
