Casanegra : a Tennyson Hardwick story
Underwood, Blair.
Adult Fiction UNDERWO
From Publishers' Weekly:
Actor Underwood (Sex and the City, etc.) teams up with accomplished authors Due and Barnes to produce a seamlessly entertaining novel. Tennyson Hardwick-semisuccessful actor, ex-gigolo and incipient sleuth-has the mixed fortune to reconnect with rap superstar Afrodite, a former client, for a night of more than just sex. The next day, she's found dead in a plastic bag with a split skull, and he's a suspect. To clear his name, Hardwick draws on all of his considerable assets: good looks and charm, a $2.5 million house inherited from a devoted client, martial arts skills (Barnes's stock in trade) and connections on both sides of the law. The authors have mixed up a cocktail of exotic elements-the sex for pay industry, the grind and glitz of Hollywood and the rap biz, a smart leavening of black film history-and topped it with a double shot of brutal murder. Handsome "Ten" Hardwick has not only a great backstory but a very promising future. 6-city author tour. (July) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved
From Library Journal:
The first two volumes in an important new series. (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
