East of Lincoln
By Harlin Hailey
The year is 2012. The end of the world is near. Set in Los Angeles in the post-Great Recession Obama years, a motley crew of unemployed characters is brought together by self-loathing, boredom and defeat. Facing hard times and no prospects, they gather in a run-down apartment to change their fates. But a destructive, nihilistic stranger has other ideas. Ideas that will change their lives forever. Darkly funny, bittersweet and fiercely honest, this evocative hard-boiled whydunit captures the underground mood of those forgotten, and how far they'll go once they've lost it all.
