The best place to be in 1943 was at the Hollywood Canteen, a club for servicemen staffed fully by volunteers from the movie industry. Annie Lawrence, a new writer in town, is anxious to meet people and rub elbows with those with influence. But when despised critic Fiona Farris ends up dead, Annie gets more than she bargained for.

This Historical Fiction Thriller is filled with all the glitz and glamour as well as secrets and scandals that made up Hollywood in the 1940s. It is a fast paced thriller with interesting and tormented characters. It is filled with barbed, snaky, and witty banter that I love. I was intrigued by the insight into the Hollywood Machine and morality clauses (think Evelyn Hugo). The characters are well developed with secrets of their own that keep you guessing until the very end. Overall, I feel that fans of historical fiction and thrillers with love this book
