Description

"Hollywood is glitter and gutter. Some make it to the top and stay there, basking in the splendor of it, while others hit bottom and are engulfed by the ugliness of it." Catherine Winter, Private Investigator The stalking of two young professional print models leads private investigator Catherine Winter into the dark and dirty shadows of Hollywood=s entertainment elite. Portraits of these people become distorted and out of focus as murder, pornography, illicit drugs, and blackmail, color the view while Catherine searches for truth and justice. In her long career as a Southern California private investigator, Catherine has seen it all and does not flinch when up against the criminal world. She is determined, open-minded, and relies on her intuition in investigative work. "Linda Pendleton's first private-eye novel is a brilliant debut." Richard S. Prather, Author of the Shell Scott Mystery Series"What makes the book so pleasurable to read outside of the brisk pace is that nothing comes easy for Winter. She has to "earn" it in the same way that Linda has earned her right to sit at the top with today's other crime writers. The inside look at Hollywood and surrounding areas rings with authenticity." Jon Guenther, Author.
