Summary: What this story is about:
Review: Mickey Collins is a struggling screenwriter living in Los Angeles and working as a bartender in a neighborhood hangout for cowboys, bikers, pool players, drug addicts, and hookers. One night a beautiful woman strolls into the bar, seduces Mickey, and leads him into a world of crime, sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll. Mickey is a tough cookie himself, but he's not prepared for this fatal attraction and the cast members he is about to meet during his trip into hell. Los Angeles is destroying itself with riots and fires, and Mickey's life becomes tangled in a web of danger as he confronts Crip gangstas and the Mob. There is a lesson to be learned in this perilous and somewhat romantic scenario of lives gone wrong, and now Mickey must take action in order to get his life back onto the straight and narrow path. If you like to read Jay McInerney, Bret Easton Ellis, and Hunter S. Thompson (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas) then you'll enjoy Dangerous Love.
