Don't you just hate it when a book gets made into a movie and they put a movie still on the cover? The photo doesn't match the description of the lead character AT ALL, so it's a bit disconcerting. Overall this was a worthy read. It was easy to imagine a the California coastal communities of the 80's with the flashbacks to the 50's as well. But the best part was the ending--it's always nice when the drama is not neatly or predictably resolved. (

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0312952058, Mass Market Paperback)

Laguna...
Where every day the sun makes a promise the nighttime breaks, while the super-rich live out expensive fantasies in posh beach houses and drown their memories in Cuervo Gold margaritas...
Laguna...
Where trouble has swept in like a Santa Ana wind, blowing the cover off a world of torture, murder and blood-red secrets
Laguna...
Where a crazed killer has turned paradise into a Disneyland of depraved violance--with a fiery vengeance--and where homicide cop Tom Shephard unravels a grisly mystery that reaches back across forty years of sordid sex, blackmail, and suicide into the dark corners of his own past, and sweats out a deadly truth in the sweltering..
