(National Review - Synopsis)
In light of all the media hype surrounding the O. J. Simpson
trial, this true account of the Lindsey Scott case is
timely. In 1983, a woman was attacked near the Quantico
Marine Base in Virginia. The victim's description of her
assailant prompted the military officers to convict and
court-martial Corporal Lindsey Scott, the only black MP in
the Quantico Criminal Investigation Division, despite his
pleas of innocence. The case became a five-year obsession
for civil rights activist Lori Jackson to see that Scott was
vindicated. Her dedication to the fight for
Scott's "justice" was the catalyst for his ultimate release.
Jackson's persistent involvement ensured that Scott had the
best legal representation, continuous publicity (even
reported by 60 Minutes), and her personal commitment as an
investigative supporter. Throughout this ordeal, racism and
poor investigative analysis of the crime were documented in
more that one instance. Scott was a victim of a racist
military investigation. It was Jackson's unstoppable probing
that helped Scott to prove his innocence. -Lillian Lewis

A novel of sex, scandal, and high-finance intrigue...
Constellation Studios. The last of the independent Hollywood
studios. It is the treasured possession of Jake Baron, a
dedicated moviemaker now forced to put his company on the
line with a giant gamble on his latest and greatest film.
And Constellation is also the object of the vengeful greed
of Japanese multi-billionaire Hiroshi Takashima, "the Asian
Octopus," who has never known a company he could not grab,
an enemy he could not destroy, or a woman he could not
conquer. Standing between him and Jake, needed and desired
by both, is Kelly Kristopher, Constellation's gorgeous, head-
of-production genius, who must learn the international
brains-and-body game usually played out in bedrooms as well
as boardrooms. Sweeping from Tokyo's red-light district to
the private realms of Hollywood royalty, AVENUE OF THE
STARS, a sizzling novel has the shock impact of a headline
in "Variety"...and it bears the unmistakable stamp of the
1990s...
