Tune in, Turn On, Drop Out, Make Money.
"The 60s were murder!"
In a world full of excessive wealth and bulletproof egos, where anything goes and everyone has a price, the award-winning novel, Wasted, takes readers into the dark underbelly of the 1960s rock and roll scene and lays the foundation of The Hipster Trilogy.
Story: Detroit, 1969. Money, power, and party drugs are fueling the sexual and political revolutions sweeping America, and everyone wants their share. So, when the beautiful daughter of Detroit's richest man, Frank Wexler, is found dead at a remote city park, after overdosing on a psychedelic drug, he'll stop at nothing to ferret out the person responsible.
As the hunt escalates, the girl's innocent boyfriend, Jesse Adams, soon finds himself the prime suspect as he's pursued by Detroit Detective Gil Nelson, who is hellbent on using the high-profile case to make his name. Once Jesse and Detective Nelson's paths intersect, their lives are forever changed.
