About the Book:
Sam Drift is a college dropout who spends his days smoking pot, writing movie reviews, wallowing in the betrayal of the only girl he ever loved, and watching old noir flicks with his beloved cat, Audrey Hepburn. Life is perfect. But when Sam's editor forces him to write an article about the death of an exotic dancer outside an unpopular strip club, he suddenly finds himself tangled in a web of local politics and criminal enterprise.
The plot thickens when Sam's ex-girlfriend comes to town to premiere a movie at a local film festival. Can Sam solve the mystery of the dead stripper and win back the love of his life? Or is Sam's delusional THC-riddled brain just acting out a Humphrey Bogart fantasy that doesn't actually exist?
Part Big Sleep and part Big Lebowski, The Mean Reds is a satirical small-town mystery told by one of the most unreliable narrators ever known.
