Chatsworth Royalty

by Michael Botz

Overview

Jana Simmons read of the Midwest massacre and learns that her cousin Jake Wood was involved. She reaches out and he reveals his survivor’s guilt and the downward spiral of depression that has left him haunted. To remove Jake from the surrounding madness of the catastrophe, Jana invites him to visit her in Los Angeles. When he arrives, Jana is nowhere to be found.

It makes zero sense. As one day passes into two, Jake begins to fear the worst. With the police unconcerned, Jake along with Jana’s best friend, Laurie Summers, commence a frantic search for the missing girl’s whereabouts.

Perilous obstacles abound.  A seedy off-the-strip casino owner with too much to lose. A dangerously ambitious real estate developer.  A prominent man with hubris so staggering that he is the catalyst to breathtaking suffering and carnage.

Chatsworth Royalty is an adventure-romance that is heartbreaking and hopeful. It’s a page-turning mystery that will be difficult to set aside and impossible to forget.

About the Author

Michael Botz was raised by a father who worked in law enforcement in the city of Toledo, Ohio. From those early days listening to his father’s reminiscences a fascination with gritty small town crime stories grew.

Botz worked in the Hollywood television and film industry on projects as varied as the television phenomenon "Friends" to no-budget soft core adult fare that sold a lot better than he would've thought.

For Botz, a perfect novel includes at least one overly greedy criminal, a small-town setting, lots of humor and enough twists and turns to keep him reading all through the night.
