More DescriptionLos Angeles. As luxurious as it is decadent, it is host to lush and extravagant galas, aglitter with the rich and famous, overrun by exotic cars, rife with crazed body builders, peopled by agents scoffing at nine-figure deals, and haunted by greed, ambition, and despair.

From the best to the worst, Donald Rawley offers it all up in a sprawling book that captivates the reader with its devastating honesty.
