If Dream Town gave you that unfiltered, pedal-to-the-metal rush through Hollywood's seedy corridors, Sunset Swing delivers the same no-holds-barred thrill ride, now amplified by 1960s Los Angeles jazz clubs, mobster intrigue, and a web of corruption that demands heroes with sharp instincts and sharper wits. Ray Celestin drops you into a bygone era where fedoras, betrayal, and timeless vices reign supreme, romanticizing the past with the period authenticity you crave—minus any modern hang-ups.
The protagonists here embody that same unflappable grit and black-and-white morality Archer delivered, chasing truth through labyrinthine plots designed purely for momentum and satisfaction. It's old-school hardboiled escapism in its most unapologetic form.
This is escapism in its most unapologetic form—dive in now.
What Readers Are Saying
"A gorgeous tale of murder, conspiracy and madness...the attention to detail – whether it’s 1900’s New Orleans, Chicago 1928, or 1960’s Los Angeles, the author manages to capture the sounds, sights and smells of the period. Highly recommended." — Martin Paul, Goodreads
"A fabulous finale to the City Blues series... This is a wonderfully detailed and complex plot which moves along rapidly to a heart stopping climax in a dangerous 1960s/70s Los Angeles setting. A riveting read with strong characters and a frighteningly real and violent plot." — Kath B, Goodreads
"This episode was brilliant... Detailed and complex investigation with jazz infused pages, and the heat of the case and the weather coming off the page. Just brilliant." — Thebooktrail, Goodreads
