Description

"This sparkling series starter delivers a confounding mystery, authentic historical details, and a spirited journalist…wonderfully cinematic scenes that vividly evoke Roaring '20s Hollywood. The mystery itself is complex and satisfyingly resolved." ~Kirkus Reviews

The 1920s are just beginning to ROAR when seventeen-year-old Kate March, an amateur sleuth and budding reporter, charges headlong into the most famous murder scene in Hollywood history. The industry's beloved film director has come to a ghastly end, but Kate knows murder makes good copy. Reckless with excitement, Kate sets her sights on solving the mystery and saving her family's failing newspaper business.

Slick dandies and dolled-up shebas are no match for Kate and her best friend, Addy, who plunge unceremoniously into dangerous schemes involving salacious gambling dens and illegal speakeasies, not to mention the dark and seedy underbelly of Paramount Studios. A spectacularly wild time is had by all until Kate lands on the wrong end of a murder charge.
