About this Event

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Jon Lindstrom is a USA Today bestselling author and a 4-time Emmy® Award nominee, having been seen in studio movies, independent films and thousands of hours of TV. An award-winning filmmaker, his work has received recognition at several prose and screenplay competitions. He is currently shaking things up as gangster "Joey Armstrong" on the new CBS/Paramount+ hit, Beyond the Gates. His first book Hollywood Hustle is being adapted into a feature film.


ABOUT THE BOOK

A struggling Hollywood actor falls into a life of crime in this highly anticipated second novel from Hollywood Hustle author and four-time Emmy® Award nominee Jon Lindstrom.

Twenty years ago, Jake Ferguson threw his life away. Once a promising Hollywood actor, he crashed and burned the usual way: with coke, booze, and pills. When that path reached its inevitable end, he made a desperate choice, and an innocent woman was killed. Before being convicted and shipped to Folsom Pr*son, Jake agreed to testify against his own partners-in-crime as the star witness for the prosecution.

Now Jake’s reentering society—coming home to an LA he no longer recognizes and to a life that has lost all meaning. Then he meets Carla, a waitress who understands him better than he expects, and he begins to believe deliverance may be possible after all. Until one night, a M**der is committed right in front of him, and Jake knows he’s been set up.

With authorities closing in and more lives on the line, there’s only one way out, for himself and the people he cares about: revenge.

Fans of Michael Connolly and Harlan Coben won’t be able to resist this unputdownable crime novel from USA Today bestselling author Jon Lindstrom.
