Description:

We Love L.A. Book Club examines books and authors that weave the diversity and rich history of our city into their works.

Set in the mid-1960s, Fadeout introduces insurance investigator Dave Brandstetter, a ruggedly handsome WWII vet and one of the first openly gay protagonists in crime fiction. Brandstetter must investigate the death of a beloved folk singer, but as the investigation unfolds, Brandstetter finds that none of it adds up.
