Joe LaBrava is a photographer documenting the street life of Miami. But before he was a photographer, he was a Secret Service agent. And before that he was a twelve-year-old boy, crazy in love with movie star Jean Shaw. When his pal Maurice Zola asks for his help in sorting out a problem for a friend, and that friend turns out to be the now-retired Jean Shaw, LaBrava's all in - even when the problem in question is blackmail.

About Elmore Leonard

Elmore Leonard (1925—2013) began his long and extraordinary career as a writer of Westerns, most famously a story which was made into the film 3:10 To Yuma. He then became known for his remarkable sequence of crime novels, generally set in Michigan or Florida. A master of funny and threatening dialogue, his influence has been incalculable. Leonard received the Lifetime Achievement Award from PEN US and the Grand Master Award from the Mystery Writers of America.
