The Beverly Hills Supper Club was Vegas before Vegas was cool. It was known as the "Showplace of the Nation" before it burned to the ground in 1977, killing at least 165 people - one of the worst fires in US history. But few knew that the Beverly Hills had a violent past of deadly arson beginning in 1936, when it was taken over by the Cleveland mob that ran "Sin City" in Newport, Kentucky - an open city of prostitution, extortion, gambling, and violence for decades, until new US Attorney General Bobby Kennedy went to war on the mob in 1961.

Stunning story

I was not familiar with the history of Newport KY but wow, hard to believe this is a true story! Spellbinding story covering decades with a colorful cast of characters. We’ll read too.

Renée Ballard works the night shift in Hollywood, beginning many investigations but finishing none, as each morning she turns her cases over to day shift detectives. A once up-and-coming detective, she's been given this beat as punishment after filing a sexual harassment complaint against a supervisor. But one night she catches two cases she doesn't want to part with: the brutal beating of a prostitute left for dead in a parking lot and the killing of a young woman in a nightclub shooting. Ballard is determined not to give up at dawn.

Big disappointment
Revisado: 05-12-19
Constantly referring to a male as "she" is not just bad biology, it's bad writing. Confusing and annoying. I'm a big Michael Connelly fan. This one was the first time I felt hectored to accept PC stupidity. Harry Bosch must be shaking his head, calling "bull----." I was unable to finish it.

Richard Stratton was the unlikeliest of kingpins. A clean-cut Wellesley boy who entered outlaw culture on a trip to Mexico, he saw his search for a joint morph into a thrill-filled dope run smuggling two kilos across the border in his car door. He became a member of the Hippie Mafia, traveling the world to keep America high, living the underground life while embracing the hippie credo, rejecting hard drugs in favor of marijuana and hashish.

Gives hippies a bad name

Would you try another book from Richard Stratton and/or Richard Stratton?
Nope.
What could Richard Stratton have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Not much. He has no self-awareness of his own hypocrisy and cluelessness. Apparently the rest of the world cannot measure up to the "high" moral standards of a drug demented criminal.
What character would you cut from Smuggler's Blues?
Richard Stratton.
Any additional comments?
Unintentionally funny in an ironic way.
