Stephen Jay Schwartz: Beat October 13, 2010

'Beat' takes place right here in North Beach as Steve brings his sex-addicted LAPD homicide detective Hayden Glass into the bowels of San Francisco on a quest to save a girl from Russian-mob sex slavers and winds up getting involved in the money corruption of the city. From Washington Square Park to the Trieste to Tosca to the strip clubs of Broadway, Steve's characters come to life on the streets of North Beach.
