✦ Synopsis

Overlook is proud to put P. F. Kluge's classic Eddie and the Cruisers --the book that spawned the movies--in paperback for the first time, so it can find a new generation of readers. With sparkling dialogue, superb plot and suspense that never flags this page-turner is the seminal novel of the 50's new music- rock-and-roll- and how it changed America.

Eddie and his Jersey-bred band, The Parkway Cruisers, were going places. With an album and a few minor hits to their credit the future seemed bright until Eddie died in a fiery car crash. Twenty years later a British rock band turns their old songs into monumental fresh hits.

With this comes a surge of interest in the surviving Cruisers and in a rumored cache of tapes that Eddie made before he died. That's when the killing starts.
