LA friends, we all need to be among good people right now, and we all know that book people are good people, and we all know that a witty, intricately plotted, absorbing L.A. noir mystery is just the thing to take one’s mind off one’s troubles… so please join us to celebrate the publication of Phoef Sutton’s terrific new book HEART ATTACK AND VINE at Vroman’s Bookstore tonight at 7 p.m. There’ll be a live performance of the great Tom Waits’s song “Heart Attack and Vine,” a lively conversation between Phoef Sutton and Lee Goldberg, and a wine bar manned by me. —Colleen Dunn Bates.
