The Wizard of Sunset Strip — Simon Hawke

SATAN STALKS THE STRIP!

A devil haunts the City of Angels ... a fiend who is carving his own Hollywood legend on the bodies of young women. Is the killer a psychopath? Or a relentless evil from the dawn of time?

Only a bumbling young wizard, a beautiful cat burglar, a cockney punk possessed by the spirit of Merlin the Magician, and the last survivor of Camelot can tackle the case that baffles the police.
