Bandito Books + E-zine

United States
>> Can't You Get Along With Anyone? A Writer's Memoir and a Tale of a Lost Surfer's Paradise. CYGAWA is the story of how Weisbecker, author of ‘In Search of Captain Zero’, is driven from his Costa Rican surf paradise. The book recounts his fall from grace with the powers that be in Hollywood and the publishing business, plus the near loss of his life due to the writing of the book; he exposes a double murderer (while on assignment for Men’s Journal magazine) and, more dangerously, “the love of his life” as a sociopath.
