About this listen

 In 1983, would-be impresario Roy Radin joined forces with fading movie producer Robert Evans and Elaine "Laney" Jacobs, a woman with the burning ambition to use the millions she had made by drug dealing to buy her way into the movie industry. Together they planned to finance the movie Cotton Club.

When Radin's body was found miles away from Los Angeles, the police had few clues and eventually had to put the investigation on hold. At the request of Radin's mother, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Steve Wick began looking into Radin's last weeks and soon unearthed the sordid connection between deal making and drug dealing that set all Hollywood on its ear.

Bad Company is both a fascinating and strangely repellent look at the darker side of the entertainment industry, as well as a striking portrait of the people who control the drug culture in this country.

So incredible it defies belief. An insightful look into the underworld of both filmmaking and drugs in the Hollywood scene of the 1980s. Personal and unforgettable.

What a story!

If you are interested in the twisted worlds of Hollywood, the cocaine trade, the criminal subculture, and shining a light into the darkness, you may really enjoy this book. Its twisted, sad, scary and 100% true. It’s well written and the narration is good. I usually get thrown by weird narration even on many best selling books. Not this one, I just heard the story. I don’t understand the low star reviews, I listen a lot to great productions and for me this is a top tier effort.

I think this is a very good book

I came to this book after listening to a podcast about this. The only thing I don't like is that they do very little about the Cotton Club movie itself.
