In the shadowy world of SCL Publishing, ambition can be deadly.
When Bradley Fitzgerald-a war-hardened veteran turned struggling writer-lands a dream job at a prestigious California publishing house, he expects long hours and tough edits. What he doesn't expect is seduction, corruption, and murder. Beneath SCL's glittering literary façade lies a sinister network of greed, blackmail, and buried secrets that reach from the boardroom to the mist-shrouded cliffs of Big Sur.
When Bradley Fitzgerald-a war-hardened veteran turned struggling writer-lands a dream job at a prestigious California publishing house, he expects long hours and tough edits. What he doesn't expect is seduction, corruption, and murder. Beneath SCL's glittering literary façade lies a sinister network of greed, blackmail, and buried secrets that reach from the boardroom to the mist-shrouded cliffs of Big Sur.
Drawn into the orbit of Laci-brilliant, mysterious, and hiding her own dangerous truths-Brad finds himself chasing more than fame. Together they uncover a conspiracy tied to a legendary lost manuscript of Henry Miller, a secret worth millions and worth killing for. From San Francisco's art scene to the wild canyons along Highway 1, their pursuit becomes a fight for survival against men who would turn the world of literature into a playground for the devil.
Smart, sensual, and steeped in California noir, Playground for the Devil is a taut literary thriller about deception, desire, and the darkness that hides beneath creative genius.
