Room 79

While in the process of researching his novel, The Drop, Michael Connelly invited two veteran homicide investigators with the LAPD to room 79 at the Chateau Marmont hotel. It's the same room in the novel that becomes a crime scene after an unexplained death. Connelly asked Detectives Rick Jackson and Tim Marcia to tell him how they would handle the scene. Many of their suggestions were used in the book.

I think this video is very interesting. I like the place, I'd love to spend a few nights in there. What I like about Michael's books is that He gives a lot of details on the places where the action runs and I really enjoy looking them up on Google. One thing, though, I couldn't find: the "Marlboro man " on an advert. pannel on Sunset bld. M.C. mentionned it 2 or 3 times in different books. I think they probably changed it for another. Thanks TerrillLee, for posting.
