  • Summary

  • When cocaine queen-pin Lanie Jacobs ditches Miami for Los Angeles, she meets Roy Radin - a washed-up theater producer with big dreams (and even bigger demons). Together, they team up for a shot at greatness: A stake in The Cotton Club, a star-studded film produced by Robert Evans, the (in)famous Hollywood legend behind The Godfather and Chinatown. But as egos, ambitions, and suspicions collide, it isn’t long before the deal turns deadly.

    Based on the shocking true story, Audible’s eight-part original drama series stars Academy Award- and Emmy-nominated actress Juliette Lewis (Natural Born Killers, Hysterical Blindness, The Act); Emmy-nominated actor Rainn Wilson (Six Feet Under, The Office); and Golden Globe Award-winning actor Christian Slater (Heathers, True Romance, Mr. Robot).

Excellent!

I usually only listen to non fiction podcasts. This was a surprising change and I loved it. Shall not turn my nose up to dramatic storytelling in future. So pleased.

Fun listen

Enjoyable but wonder about the amount of honest truth. Could have been a little more serious.
