The murder/mystery is my favorite genre so I knew I was going to like the story, but this goes so much farther than that. The story starts simply enough: A movie star is found dead b...
I almost don't think I'm old enough to read this--R rated and then some. Definitely the dark side of Hollywood. This volume sheds a black light on the Golden Age of Hollywood and the studio system.
