Mystery Historical
Los Angeles, 1937. Lillian Frost has traded dreams of
stardom for security as a department store salesgirl . . .
until she discovers she's a suspect in the murder of her
former roommate, Ruby Carroll. Party girl Ruby died wearing
a gown she stole from the wardrobe department at Paramount
Pictures, domain of Edith Head. Edith has yet to win
the first of her eight Academy Awards; right now she's
barely hanging on to her job, and a scandal is the last
thing she needs. To clear Lillian's name and save Edith's
career, the two women join forces. Unraveling the
mystery pits them against a Hungarian princess on the lam, a
hotshot director on the make, and a private investigator
who's not on the level. All they have going for them are
dogged determination, assists from the likes of Bob Hope and
Barbara Stanwyck, and a killer sense of style. In show
business, that just might be enough. The first in a
series of riveting behind-the-scenes mysteries, Renee
Patrick's Design for Dying is a delightful romp
through Hollywood's Golden Age.
