Mystery
Vaudeville actress Leah Randall took on her most daring role
ever when she impersonated missing heiress Jessie Carr in
order to claim Jessie’s inheritance in The Impersonator. Now
that the dust has settled around that tumultuous time in her
life, Leah has adopted Jessie’s name as her own and moved to
Hollywood, where she's taken a modest but steady job in the
silent film industry. Jessie’s thrilled when Bruno Heilmann, a movie studio
bigwig, invites her to a party. She’s even more delighted to
run into a face from her past at that party. But the
following day, Jessie learns that sometime in the wee hours
of the morning both her old friend and Bruno Heilmann were
brutally murdered. She’s devastated, but with her skill as an actress, access
to the wardrobes and resources of a film studio, and a face
not yet famous enough to be recognized, Jessie is uniquely
positioned to dig into the circumstances surrounding these
deaths. But will doing so put her own life directly in the
path of a murderer? With Silent Murders, MB/MWA First Crime Novel Competition
winner Mary Miley has crafted another terrifically fun
mystery, this time set in the dizzying, dazzling heart of
jazz-age Hollywood.
