Stemming from a request for a simple favor, Mathias is thrust into his cousin Tommys world of drugs, raves, deceit and murder. When a deal goes bad, the two are left with a duffel bag full of money and three dead bodies, forcing them to flee Los Angeles as they are relentlessly pursued through small towns of the southwest.The cousins careen through an ocean array of alcohol, drugs, and unsuspected self-discovery in a desperate attempt for vindication and survival."Christopher Szatkowski's millennial road novel, Blacklight, takes us into a brave new world of collegiate drifters, still variously trying, in Van Morrison's words, 'to get down to what is really real'. It's a surprising and engaging debut." Aram Saroyan"Mix up equal parts of Hunter S. Thompson and Elmore Leonard's style in a phantasmagoric prose cocktail shaker, toss in a USC student on a careening, drug and booze-soaked road trip across California to Arizona and back, top it off with a few bizarre Christmas tableaux, and you've got Christopher Szatkowski's ambitious new book, Blacklight." Allen Woodman
