Robert Everz - Digging James Dean

Quite often, I pick up a book because I read a review for the one about to be released and think, "That sounds pretty good... maybe I'll just pick up their last one and try that." Which is how I found "Digging James Dean." I have to say, I really enjoyed this book. The main character, Nina Zero, is the main character in several other books by Eversz and it appears that there is a timeline in the series, although I wasn't required to read the other books first to fully understand this one.
Nina Zero is an ex-con who works as a tabloid photographer. The characters in the book are memorable, dimensional and would probably be fun to hang around with. The book doesn't have a pat ending, which threw me for a loop-- but justice, in it's fashion, is served to some degree. I wouldn't have minded an ending that was a bit more clear, but I won't complain about what I got. I would say that this book could make a good movie, especially with all the Hollywood connections, but then again, I recall the V.I. Warshawski debacle, so who could say if a movie would be a good idea?
To sum up, this book doesn't go too deep into the dark side. But it is fast-paced and keeps the reader's interest. I look forward to reading more Nina Zero books.
