Cuttin' Heads - Watson, Dave

. .

Résumé :
Is it really better to burn out than to fade away? Aldo Evans is a desperate man. Fired from his job and deeply in debt, he struggles to balance a broken family life with his passion for music. Luce Figura is a troubled woman. A rhythmic perfectionist, she is haunted by childhood trauma and scorned by her religiously devout mother. Ross McArthur is a wise ass. Orphaned as an infant, his interests include game shows, home-grown weed, occasional violence and the bass guitar. They are Public Alibi. A rock n' roll band going nowhere fast. But when the sharp-suited, smooth talking producer Gappa Bale offers them a once-in-a-lifetime chance to make their dreams come true, they are caught up in a maelstrom of fame, obsession, music and murder. This is the large print edition of Cuttin' Heads, with a larger font / typeface for easier reading.
