Once, Stewart “Hoagy” Hoag was the toast of the publishing world and husband of luscious Broadway beauty Merilee Nash. But fame and fortune left him as swiftly and surely as Merilee. Now Hoagy ekes out a living as a ghostwriter of celebrity memoirs and reluctant amateur detective, aided by his cat food-eating basset hound named Lulu. Wildly bestselling first-time novelist Cam Noyes writes with a lyric voice like F.Scott’s and looks like he leapt right out of a Ralph Lauren ad. The media’s latest darling, he’s having a ball running with the brat pack, posing for magazines, rolling in and out of beds, brawling in bars, swigging tequila, and snorting cocaine. But with such a busy schedule, Cam simply can’t find the time to write his long-overdue second book. Enter Hoagy to ghostwrite Cam’s tell-all espose of the dirty business behind megabuck book deals. But “cutthroat” takes on a whole new meaning as the bodies start piling up faster than the pages of the manuscript. If Hoagy doesn’t act fast, there’ll be no one left in publishing to tell the tale…Condition: a couple of dings in the front cover, spine creased from reading, minimal shelf wear.
