It's 2019 and Lily Jones is living her dream in LA. Sort of. It hasn't quite turned out as she planned and instead of working as a movie producer, she's cleaning at the prestigious Beverly Hills Hotel. At least she gets to work in the renowned Paul Williams suite, site of the murder of Honey Black 70 years ago, shrouded in rumour and dark glamour. It is 1949 and Honey Black is about to hit the big time. She may have started out a country girl from Hicksville but now she is a star. And Hollywood had better watch out - nothing can stop her now! After an accidental bump to the head, Lily finds herself in Hollywood, 1949. Like a dream come true, she's rubbing shoulders with the great and good of Tinseltown. Including Honey Black. Horrified, Lily realises that the actress has only two weeks left to live before she will be murdered. Can she find the killer and stop them in their tracks?

This is a fun mystery with some fascinating characters. The plot rolls along nicely and I loved that some of the peripheral actors are real life ones. The descriptions of Beverley Hills during the 1940s seems well done and researched, it’s easy to picture it in my mind. The razzle dazzle, the glamour and the excitement of Hollywood shines through. I worked out who the culprit was quite early on but this in no way detracts from the rest of the story. An entertaining and engaging read set in a bygone era. It should delight historical mystery/thriller fans. I certainly enjoyed it. ( )
