The core of this tale was inspired by real events – a beautiful dancer slain, The psychotic roommate has confessed, but a dilettante actor turned journalist thinks there's more to it and investigates. Soon one of his sources mentions he might have better luck gaining trust if he'd shoot dope.
Welcome to New York's East Village, aka Loisaida, circa 1988. Meet your neighbors -- artists, dreamers, hustlers, devil worshipers, anarchists, junkies and yuppies -- all competing for breathing space in a city without air. It's the era of greed, when the poor are objects of scorn not sympathy, and the gentrifiers view themselves as urban pioneers. This is a story about sex and drugs and real estate. This is a story about a murder.
