"Estrin captures the vagaries and vices of the San Fernando Valley porn industry in its late-aughts/early teens death throes, delivering a slacker noir you could tuck neatly between Fletch and The Big Lebowski, with a dash of Boogie Nights, of course. Highly recommended for fans of Tim Dorsey, Gregory Mcdonald, or Terry Southern."
Robert J. Peterson, author of The Odds and The Remnants
"With a reporter's attention to detail, an uncanny ear for dialogue, and a hilarious dry wit reminiscent of Douglas Adams, Estrin takes us on an unforgettable tour of the porn industry, where a cavalcade of quirky and desperate people validated my decision to become a comedy writer, rather than a pornographer."

Heywood Jablowme (not his real name) is the newest reporter for The Daily Pornographer, the industry's second-best trade publication. Pumping out puff pieces on porn's premier players wasn't Heywood's original plan. He wanted to be a serious journalist, the kind who frowns on cheap alliteration.
When producer-performer Johnny Toxic is murdered, Heywood sees his chance to break a big story and get his career back on track. Now, all he has to do is get a shady homicide detective to go on the record, keep his editor off his back by meeting his story quota, and figure out why the porn industry is suddenly losing money hand over first.
In other words, Heywood's odds of success are as long as a porn star's dong. Thankfully, he has the unwavering support of his roommate, Miles, a porn-obsessed stoner and wannabe media mogul who guarantees he can sell the film rights before Heywood is either fired for competence, or done in by the killer.
