Give Me Danger

<p><b>From international cult author Tea Hačić-Vlahović comes a dark literary comedy celebrating and damning both coasts following Val from LA where drug dealer crushes and cute homeless boys distract her from writing her next book to NYC for a funeral for her writing career and love life.</b></p>
<p>Val's debut hit novel earned her a glamorous beach house but it left her desperate for legitimacy. Now she’s pinned her hope for literary clout to Leonardo a New York publishing legend who has accepted her second novel. Unfortunately before he finishes editing he dies in a shocking twist leaving Val to attend his memorial in search of answers.</p>
<p>At the Roxy Hotel in NYC she runs into rivals and shady people from her past and befriends a rat who may or may not be the late editor reincarnated. Meanwhile back in Los Angeles a homeless kid and drug dealer meet under unlikely circumstances in Val’s living room.</p>
<p>Doom looms on the horizon as people on both coasts try to make peace with their ambitions failures and horoscopes. For readers of Anna Dorn’s <i>Exalted</i> and Mona Awad’s <i>Bunny</i> <i>Give Me Danger</i> is a keening exploration of what happens when success is not enough.</p>
