Los Angeles, 1986.
For aspiring drummer Rikki Thunder, metal rules the world. He might be sleeping in a condemned paint store and stuck in a band going nowhere, but things change fast in the City of Angels.
When Rikki lands a spot with L.A.'s hottest new act, Whyte Python, his life turns up to 11: hit singles, screaming fans, and the girl of his dreams in the front row.
But fame has a dark side.
As the Cold War breathes its last gasps and American music crashes through the Iron Curtain, Rikki finds himself at the centre of a secret cultural revolution.
Unwittingly swept into a dangerous game of influence and espionage, he must navigate a world of sex, synth, and spycraft-where power chords meet power struggles.
A genre-bending Cold War rock thriller packed with heart, humour, and heavy metal.
