Quentin Tarantino's long-awaited first work of fiction - at once hilarious,delicious,and brutal - is the always surprising,sometimes shocking new novel based on his Academy Award-winning film.
Rick Dalton - Once he had his own TV series,but now Rick's a washed-up villain-of-the week drowning his sorrows in whiskey sours. Will a phone call from Rome save his fate or seal it
Cliff Booth - Rick's stunt double,and the most infamous man on any movie set because he's the only one there who might have gotten away with murder . . .
Sharon Tate - She left Texas to chase a movie-star dream,and found it. Sharon's salad days are now spent on Cielo Drive,high in the Hollywood Hills.
Charles Manson - The ex-con's got a bunch of zonked-out hippies thinking he's their spiritual leader,but he'd trade it all to be a rock'n'roll star.

'The rollicking debut novel by Quentin Tarantino is a seamless,seamy blend of fact and fiction'- The Times

'This book boasts some tremendous scenes,with magical dialogue,that I wouldn't have missed for the world'- The Daily Telegraph
'The book is a distinct experience - rangier,sexier,bloodier...Classic,sparks-flying Tarantino...The start of a new direction for this relentlessly inventive director.'- The Washington Post
