The Golden Orange: A Novel

The Golden Orange: A Novel

When forty-year-old cop Winnie Farlowe lost hisÂ Â shield, he lost the only protection he had. EverÂ Â since, he's been fighting a bad back, fighting theÂ Â bottle, fighting his conscience. But now he's inÂ Â for a special fight. Never before has he come upÂ Â against anyone like Tess Binder. She's aÂ Â stunningly beautiful, sexually spirited three-timeÂ Â divorcee from Newport Beach--capital of California'sÂ Â Golden Orange, where wallets are fat, bikinis areÂ Â skimpy, and cosmetic surgery is one sure way to aÂ Â billionaire's bank account. Nearly a year ago TessÂ Â Binder's father washed up on the beach with a bulletÂ Â in his ear. The coroner called it suicide, but toÂ Â Tess it means the fear of her own fate. AndÂ Â Winnie Farlowe is a man willing to follow wherever sheÂ Â leads--straight into the juicy pulp of the GoldenÂ Â Orange, a world where money is everything, butÂ Â nothing adds up . . . where death and chicaneryÂ Â flourish amidst ranches, mansions, and yachtingÂ Â parties. In his long-awaited new novel, best-sellingÂ Â author Joseph Wambaugh combines harrowing suspense,Â Â scathing humor, and a moving portrait of a man onÂ Â the brink ofÂ Â self-destruction.
