It's murder on the movie set
It's no surprise when Cora Felton's ex-husband's sensational tell-all memoir, Confessions of a Trophy Husband: My Life with the Puzzle Lady, is optioned for the movies, but it certainly raises eyebrows when the Puzzle Lady herself signed on as an associate producer. Cora explains gamely that she hoped to have some control over the project. The truth is that she needs the money.
Now Cora is filming her life story on location in New York City, and things couldn't be worse. She doesn't like the script, she doesn't like the director, and she absolutely hates the actress who is playing her in the movie. It's almost a relief when the first dead body shows up on the set. If only it didn't come with a crossword puzzle . . .

Recenzii

"The storytelling is light and breezy. Cora earns her sleuthing cred when she takes one look at the boyfriend's desk and pronounces his 'suicide' a murder: 'A guy doesn't off himself with tickets to Hamilton.' Brilliant deduction. Case closed."
"An enjoyable mystery. Hall’s sly swipes at the movie business enhance this lively tale that keeps readers guessing about the culprit to the end."
"It’s fun to follow along as Cora applies her ferociously logical mind—failure at crosswords notwithstanding—to the task of nabbing a ruthless killer. A wealth of cinematic detail that is sure to please not only movie buffs but anyone with more than a passing interest in the industry."
"A wild adventure."
"The one-liners and witty comebacks never stop in the latest ‘Puzzle Lady’ romp. Readers who appreciate fast-paced cozies with an outrageous amateur sleuth will relish puzzling out the follow-up to The Purloined Puzzle."
