In 1939 Los Angeles, Evelyn Galloway is thrilled to land her dream job as a script supervisor on Alfred Hitchcock’s adaptation of *Rebecca*. But her excitement quickly turns to shock when a legendary actor cancels their lunch the next day, only to be found murdered in his home.

Evelyn soon realizes she may be a key witness, having passed the actor’s bungalow the night before and noticing a man looking upset in the gazebo. To complicate matters, movie starlet Madeleine Nabors is seen running wildly from the scene. As Evelyn pieces together the clues, she must navigate the glitz and glamour of Hollywood to uncover the truth behind the murder.

A great cozy mystery! I couldn't put the book down - read it in one day!

Amy Patricia Meade does a great job in writing this type of book, it had that element that I was looking for and enjoyed the mystery element that was going on. The overall story worked with the Hollywood element and was glad I was able to read this. I was engaged with the Old Hollywood element and am excited for more in the Evelyn Galloway Mystery series.

This book seems almost tailor made for me and I absolutely adored it. Evelyn is a real firecracker, and the mystery was perfectly paced. I loved the setting and all the little details of a movie set (I adore the film Rebecca) too.
