A Hollywood True Crime Account of the Cotton Club Murder, Film Financing, and Contract Killers

In the spring of 1983, wealthy theatrical producer Roy Radin traveled to Los Angeles hoping to co-finance The Cotton Club, an upcoming blockbuster film produced by Hollywood heavyweight Robert Evans. Weeks later, Radin's bullet-riddled body was discovered in a dry creek bed near Casitas Pass in Southern California.

Journalist Steve Wick chronicles the ensuing homicide investigation that exposed a lethal intersection of Hollywood ambition and Miami drug cartels. The probe ultimately led to Lanie Jacobs, a ruthless drug trafficker acting as a film liaison, who hired contract killers to execute Radin over a disputed percentage of the film's profits.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Steve Wick delivers a meticulously reported investigative account of 1980s Hollywood decadence and true crime. Focusing on criminal syndicates, film industry power brokers, and the mechanics of a murder-for-hire plot, this book is perfect for fans of Peter Biskind, Dominick Dunne, and Robert Graysmith.
