Brilliant characterisation and authentic dialogue * Daily Mail *
Straight-shooting, tough-talking crime dramaGreat stuff * Time Out *
Deliriously entertaining fiction rich in incident, anecdote and, especially, great characters * Observer *
The cops are all fabulous characters... street language that just zings off the page... it's a jungle out there and Wambaugh is the man to lead you through it * Daily Express *
Wambaugh is a masterful storyteller. Hollywood Hills is a dazzling mosaic that offers caper-style comedy, downbeat heroics, heartbreakingly authentic detail and unconventional but effective police procedural work. * Irish Times *
We get to ride again with the crew of the most colourful cop-shop under the sun. * Scotsman *
Joseph Wambaugh served with the LAPD for fourteen years. He is internationally recognised as one of crime fiction's Olympians. He lives in Rancho Mirage, California with his wife, Dee.
