Présentation de l'éditeur :
Former film industry insider Katlin Wallace thinks she has left everything that has to do with Hollywood behind her when she and her husband retire to Florida. What she hadn’t counted on was her husband walking out on her, or her best friend Helen calling from Studio City, begging her to come back to California. Helen’s daughter, Lane Allison, once America’s Sweetheart of the Cinema, has been accused of murdering her producer husband. Witnesses claim they saw Lane Allison push her producer husband down a flight of stairs during a party. Helen needs Katie to see them through the worst nightmare of their life.When feisty, quick-witted and sharp-tongued Katlin arrives to offer moral support, she unwittingly exposes an adoring ex-wife, a conniving relative, a Bible-thumping lover, a crafty brother-in-law, a suspicious acting secretary who can’t stop crying, and a foreign student with his own reasons for wanting Richard Wagnor dead. Each of them has motive and opportunity, but how could they have killed him when everyone saw Lane do it? And why is Katlin suddenly on someone’s hit list? The fast-moving, often funny but always chillingly entertaining, trail leads to twists and turns intended to take Katlin’s breath away—permanently. Were it not for her curiosity and stubborn determination, a cunning killer could quite possibly have gotten away with the perfect murder.
Biographie de l'auteur :
I became a writer because I have no skills. There was nothing left to do but pick up a pencil and start writing. It was a fluke I landed a job at CBS and a bigger one that I was with MGM for some of the best years of my life, after writing radio and television commercials, and educational films, in the Midwest. My last screenplay was for the feature film "Te Ata" (www.teatathemovie.com). I doubt I will write more for the motion picture industry; I'm having too much fun turning out books - mysteries, poetry, non-fiction and children's books - and doing public speaking. I live back in the Midwest now, with way too many cats.
