1949. Venice, California. "The roller coaster has been dismantled for scrap. The movie theater on the pier is empty and boarded up. A dead body is found in a lion's cage submerged in a canal. The first of many... Everyone tends to believe there is no connection between the deaths. Except for Detective Elmo Crumley and a strange young man who sits at a typewriter all day long and sends his stories to the magazines "Black Mask", "Supernatural Stories", "Mademoiselle". Bradbury's novel, written more than twenty years after "Trouble is Coming," surprised everyone. "Death is a lonely business" - a tribute to the "cool" detectives R. Chandler and D. Hammett and classic Hollywood noir.
