From 4-time Emmy-nominated actor Jon Lindstrom of General Hospital, Bosch, and True Detective fame, comes a gripping debut thriller.

Set in the dark underbelly of the LA film industry, Hollywood Hustle is ""a high stakes, high octane thrill ride. Lindstrom, a Hollywood insider, is the real deal."" -Robert Dugoni, New York Times bestselling author of the Tracy Crosswhite series

Winston Greene, a has-been film star, wakes one morning to find his six-year-old granddaughter at his bedside-traumatized, unattended, and gripping onto a thumb drive. She comes bearing video proof that her mother, Win's troubled adult daughter, has been kidnapped by a murderous gang demanding all his ""movie money"" for her safe return. But what they don't know is...his movie money is long gone.

Unable to go to the police for fear the kidnappers will make good on their promise to kill his daughter, Winston turns to two close friends-a legendary Hollywood stuntman and a disgraced former LAPD detective.

There's no easy way out for Winston or his daughter-the gang is violent and willing to do anything to get the money they're after, and Winston begins to realize that to get his daughter back, he'll have to beat the kidnappers at their own game.

This propulsive and tense thriller will transport readers to the seedier side of LA, depicted in bold prose by a Hollywood insider.

Reviews for Hollywood Hustle: A Thriller

Praise for Hollywood Hustle: “A high stakes, high octane thrill ride. Lindstrom, a Hollywood insider, is the real deal.” —Robert Dugoni, New York Times bestselling author of The Tracy Crosswhite Series “With every page in Hollywood Hustle, Jon Lindstrom just keeps right on raising the stakes and tightening all the screws. The book is impossible to put down so do pick up on it as soon as you can.” —Robert Greenfield, bestselling author of True West: Sam Shepard's Life, Work, and Times and Exile On Main Street: A Season In Hell With The Rolling Stones “Jon Lindstrom’s Hollywood Hustle has all the premium ingredients: lead character you’ll invest in and root for, nail-biting action, strong, smart women, adversaries worthy of your time, and heart with a story of a dad and his life or death devotion to family—all making the perfect recipe for a bestselling thriller.”    —Yasmin Angoe, Anthony nominated author of the critically acclaimed Nena Knight series, Her Name Is Knight, They Come at Knight, It End with Knight “Winston Greene, an over the hill movie star with good instincts and bad luck, is the reader’s guide through the Los Angeles demimonde of drugs, thugs, kidnappers, cops—and decent men and women trying against odds to live ordinary, honest lives. Jon Lindstrom brings his large cast to life in a rich, lively, suspenseful novel that has, in abundance, realism, humor (and a satisfying body count).” —Castle Freeman Jr., acclaimed author of Go with Me, All That I Have and The Devil in the Valley “Hollywood Hustle is an insanely paced thriller that will leave you guessing up to the last minute. As an actor, director, and writer, Jon Lindstrom knows the intimacies of Hollywood — and he knows them intimately. Lindstrom combines a deep knowledge of the history of Los Angeles with a propulsive modern take on the noir tradition.”  —James & Paula O’Byrne, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists, New Orleans Times Picayune
