"For many men, being this close to a beautiful woman they can't touch is like being a shark trapped in a cloud of blood with nothing to eat." So comes a twisted novel about the dark soul of Hollywood, equal parts thriller, black comedy, and revenge fantasy . . . Benjamin Bailey was a good photographer. Still is, technically. But shit, as they say, happens. One day Ben's shooting celebrities for high-end magazine covers. The next, he's stalking them on the streets for a different kind of photo. One bad decision, one promising career snuffed. Now this reluctant paparazzo has a new job. Some not-so-nice men have asked Ben not-so-nicely to break into the home of rising starlet Melody Marx. The gig: Plant remote cameras to catch young Melody in the most compromising positions. Ben does indeed get into her house. He plants his cameras. After that, however, the plan changes. Ben never planned to meet Melody Marx . . . Never planned to get closer than any fan . . . To see more than any photographer . . . To finally bleed for his art . . .

In 1969, an underground mine fire lit the fuse on a Pennsylvania town. Thirty years later, the few who remain in this desolate, lawless place will discover something there worth a fight... Gunther Gott is a dive bartender at the last business operating in town. He has few friends. He's in love with a girl who doesn't exactly second the emotion. He's accomplished nothing in this life except how to achieve the perfect "pour," and doesn't see a whole lot of reasons to push beyond that. But there are others in town who want to take what little he has. A single gunshot will put him on a new path. A second gunshot will push him down it. And when Gunther realizes the truth about this long-dead town, he will become the one man nobody expects defending the one place nobody wants. And doing it for the best reason: Payback. "There's great poetry in slow decay, and Zimmerman's eye for texture finds fertile ground in the crumbling, anthracite coal underbelly of this fictional PA town. In a world of pre-fab reality TV shows and silicone everything, the characters in Where the Sun Don't Shine remind the reader that there's a real world out there, warts, sinkholes, sawed-off shotguns, and all. Go ahead, pull up a stool. You'll like what Zim's pouring." - Matt Bean, former editor-in-chief, Entertainment Weekly Warning: Contains violence, profanity, sexual content, and adult themes.
