About the Book

Southern California, ‘from the desert to the sea’, an unsettled land of drive by stories.

A young man desperately combs dark, unfamiliar streets past midnight for a friend who has disappeared into the drugged and booze saturated underworld of Downtown L.A.

A retired detective opts for an ‘easy gig’ consulting on a true crime TV show – only to see a cold case turn red hot on his first day on the job in the middle of sleepy Santa Monica.

A remote town on the edge of a High Desert dry bed lake struggles to protect a wayward native son suffering with traumatic brain injury from the outside world. Outsiders have other ideas.

A first date descends into a three day psycho drama when a young couple is trapped over the long Memorial Day weekend in a massive prop warehouse on an empty studio lot – presided over by a fifteen foot high hollow clown.

They are only a few of the people you will meet in the uncertain world of the Grace Hotel, where every guest signs on to unforeseen terms of service and where there’s always a vacancy for the traveler who is willing to be surprised.
