Bad City is a nonfiction, true crime thriller written by the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Paul Pringle about a scandal involving Dr. Carmen Puliafito, the head of the medical school at University of Southern California. As the story unfolds, the author delves into the pressures to stay silent and the unsurmountable obstacles that were placed in his way to uncovering the truth. Along the way, he exposes crimes and cover-ups involving drugs, drug deals, institutional corruption, and corruption in the newsroom—all with the fast-paced and fascinating backdrop of an L.A. that most people have never seen and will never experience for themselves. With a unique point of view and skilled story-telling, Bad City was a fast and entertaining read that kept me on the edge of my seat. I would recommend this book to fans of true crime and/or thrillers.
