California Angel

A Coastline of Secrets

Immerse yourself in the sun-soaked glamour and hidden darkness of 1990s California with California Angel, Nancy Taylor Rosenberg’s spellbinding thriller that races from the glittering streets of Los Angeles to the windswept cliffs of Big Sur. When determined investigative journalist Dana Lawrence receives an anonymous tip about a string of missing women linked to a powerful Hollywood producer, she embarks on a perilous quest for the truth. Rosenberg’s razor-sharp prose and evocative sense of place bring every palm-lined boulevard and fog-laden seaside highway to vivid life, as Dana discovers that beneath the veneer of Tinseltown’s golden promise lies a world of greed, corruption, and deadly obsession.

Shadows Over Sunset Boulevard

Teaming up with brooding former detective Marcus Reyes—haunted by a case that nearly destroyed him—Dana delves into a tangled web of extortion, betrayal, and long-buried trauma. As they follow cryptic clues from exclusive nightclubs to opulent mansions, each revelation drives them closer to a merciless predator with unlimited resources and a thirst for control. Tension crackles in every encounter, from heated interrogations in windowless safe houses to heart-pounding chases along coastal cliffs, as Dana and Marcus fight not only for justice, but to survive the sinister forces determined to silence them.

Redemption Under the California Sky

Amid the chaos of danger, Dana and Marcus forge an electrifying partnership built on mutual respect and shared scars. Rosenberg weaves moments of quiet resilience—late-night stakeouts beneath neon signs, whispered confessions in hidden alcoves—into a propulsive narrative that balances adrenaline-fueled action with deeply human stakes. As the case reaches a shattering climax at an exclusive Hollywood gala, loyalties are tested, sacrifices are made, and the true cost of ambition is laid bare beneath the glittering California sky.

. “A breathtaking race against time where betrayal lurks around every corner, and only those brave enough to chase the light can unmask the darkness,” writes Nancy Taylor Rosenberg’s description.
