Unabridged Audiobook
Absolutely mesmerizing. Each of the five major characters/family is a unique story set amid the palms, swimming pools and mansions of an earlier, perhaps more glamorous period. Some of the stories have been retold by Raymond Chandler and others in fiction--one recognizes the sad similarity. The extent of Ms. Stein's reach is terrific--anyone connected gives a different viewpoint to the story. Highly recommended to those interested in Southern California history.
