The Writer with No Hands (Pocket-sized edition)

By Matthew Alford

The first authoritative investigation into allegations that a Hollywood screenwriter was victim of a lethal kidnap operation by the CIA. "I had an unseen file; an autopsy report for a Hollywood screenwriter that alleged murder. I was an unemployed PhD graduate and failed comedian, living in a flooded house with two small children and my ex-wife. So I guess it just seemed rational to find conclusive proof that this man had been murdered in a staged road accident by hit-men from the US government. I left my home in rural England with a cameraman in tow to retrace the screenwriter's final moments in California. If this death was really an assassination, I was in increasing danger. But if it was just a stupid accident ... God... don't let it be that." Set against a political backdrop marked by war, sex and blackmail, The Writer with No Hands unveils the never-told true story of Hollywood's forgotten rebel, Gary Devore, and Dr. Alford's search for the brutal truth in a world where everyone lies for a living.
