À propos de cet audio

When Dinko Babich, a young longshoreman, delivers Lita Medina, a young Mexican dancer, from San Pedro Harbor to a Hollywood nightclub, their lives are forever changed. An unexpectedly tender and moving love story develops among the cops and criminals who occupy the harbor, and soon Dinko and Lita are caught up in terror and peril through no fault of their own.

Some LAPD characters from Wambaugh’s acclaimed “Hollywood Station” series are here: the surfer cops “Flotsam and Jetsam,” aspiring actor “Hollywood Nate” Weiss, and young Britney Small, along with new members of the midwatch, all gamely coping with the wackiness of Hollywood. It’s a tale only Wambaugh could have told, with his trademark dark humor and unflinching eye for detail.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Razor-edged dialogue punctuates the vignette-filled plot. Realistic criminals are well matched by Wambaugh’s equally authentic police.” ( Publishers Weekly, Starred Review)
“A very fast ride-along, enlivened by cop gallows humor, snarky street altercations, and an insistent pull to the dark side.” ( Booklist, Starred Review)
“The legendary Wambaugh’s newest is chock-full of his trademark cop talk and offbeat side vignettes.” ( Library Journal)

This book is at once is gritty, humourous, and and a sad love story.
It is about the workings of beat officers on midwatch at Hollywood Central with various vignettes as they go about their duties. It is also about the harsh lives of illegal immigrants and the story of one young beautiful illegal Mexican girl who gets involved wth the violence surrounding prostitution and tries to escape.
