“Los Angeles was the kind of place where everybody was from somewhere else, and nobody really dropped anchor. It was a transient place. People are drawn by the dream, people running from the nightmare. Twelve million people and all of them ready to make a break for it if necessary. Figuratively, literally, metaphorically — any way you want to look at it — everybody in L.A. keeps a bag packed. Just in case.”
- Micheal Connelly
