Henry Harrison has made it his life's work to destroy his high-profile enemy, filmmaker D.W. Griffith.
A writer for the Atlantic Monthly, Harrison blindly risks his marriage, his relationship with his son, and the business he shares with his wife, to pursue his misguided passion. But when his wife tells him she is having an affair on the same day he is to come face-to-face with Griffith, Harrison's world is suddenly turned upside down.
A historic novel set in the early twentieth century, Hollywood and Sunset tells the dramatic story of a man who, when faced with losing everything, comes to discover that his only true nemesis lies within himself.
Luke Salisbury, author of several works of fiction and non-fiction, including The Cleveland Indian and Blue Eden, writes for a sophisticated audience with a penchant for fine detail. His characters are interesting, well-developed and extremely engaging.
Armchair Interviews says: The story is vivid, theatrical, and full of emotion--a truly brilliant literary work.
