Buried Treasures of New England

By Phil Strongman

A colloquial, fast-moving first-person narrative, COCAINE tells the story of Pete, a freelance music journalist who thinks he's got a scoop on the big band of the moment and whose life revolves around the next party and, increasingly, the next line of coke. Set in the fickle Soho music/media world, where every drink, CD or gram is free - if you know the right people and get on the right guest-lists - it's a sharp, often funny but by no means amoral novel about the music and drugs businesses: a portrait of an environment where every smiley face hides a taste for blood, and where charlie is always the most popular guy in town.
