Every single May Cobb book is a treat I cannot put down. Nobody writes characters as relatable as Cobb, I don't know how she does it! It's like she's in my head, reading all of my intrusive thoughts, and she's poured them into her main characters. A delicious book I tore through in one sitting.

Dare I say this is May Cobb’s best yet? The queen of sultry crime—the empress of women’s wrongs—is back with her most sumptuous and sensual book yet, set in an L.A. of apricot skies and ice-cold martinis, filled with taut, sweaty bodies you aren’t allowed to touch. Cobb crafts an expert tale of women whose longing and desire exceeds social acceptability, giving us anti-heroines who plot and take and don’t apologize—and who always, one way or another, come out on top. May Cobb is redefining the femme fatale for the twenty-first century—and, like her fatal femmes, The Hollywood Assistant is a hot, twisted, messed-up masterpiece.

The Hollywood Assistant is May Cobb at her best and like we've never seen her before—bringing her signature Piney Woods noir to Hollywood, where everyone is a performer and no motivation is pure. Cobb understands the dark hearts of women, the cravings—for power, success, love—that make things go bump in the night. It's impossible to choose a favorite Cobb novel, but with its sinister Rear Window twists and homage to classic erotic thrillers, The Hollywood Assistant is at the top of my list.

The Hollywood Assistant is as fun and as fresh as its title—and fast: think Frieda McFadden’s The Housemaid—but sharp, too, and provocative, with a subtly retro attitude that recalls 80s cinema classics. I've said it before and I'll say it again: May Cobb writes suspense you can mainline.
