More about the book

Set in postwar Los Angeles, the book explores Bunker Hill, a gritty neighborhood that served as a backdrop for psychological crime thrillers. It highlights the influence of novelist Raymond Chandler and his detective Philip Marlowe, who navigated the area’s tough streets. The narrative delves into the underlying criminal activities orchestrated by the city’s elite, while Hollywood documented these stories on film. Accompanied by nearly eighty photos, this work offers a grassroots investigation into a lost chapter of L.A. history.
