“Mixing equal parts of Elmore Leonard, Desperate Housewives, Carl Hiaasen and Legally Blonde, Rocky Lang has concocted a wholly original and hilarious cocktail of sex and politics that goes down smoothly and leaves you gasping with pleasure. Hollywood and Washington have never been worshiped so fervently or dissected so viciously. If there’s any justice in the world, this will soon be a major motion picture.”
–David Frankel, director of The Devil Wears Prada and Marley & Me.

“The Big Nasty is a delicious roller coaster ride of a read. It’s as irresistibly sexy and intoxicating as its ambition leading lady, Lacey Cartright. Rocky Lang takes us on a sardonic journey into the lure of fame and power in Hollywood and Washington, D.C. I loved it!”
–Brenda Stong – Desperate Housewives
