Death of a Movie Star

StarBash is the hottest thing on TV. Featuring desperate actors facing off in absurd competitions to win a movie deal, the reality show is famous for making fools of its fame-starved participants.

So it seems odd that respected Hollywood A-lister Cassandra "Casmo" Moreaux would become a contestant. But her motivation is simple: revenge against the program's producer, Lenora Danmore-an old starlet who had Casmo's mother blacklisted from show business during the McCarthy era. Casmo plans to use StarBash to confront and embarrass Lenora in front of the entire country-but what Casmo doesn't know could kill her.

Vindictive and wicked, Lenora is determined to set a trap for the upstart movie star. But when Casmo unexpectedly falls in love with the show's wry host-who also happens to be Lenora's illegitimate son-the murder plot bubbles over with unforeseen complications.

With a cast of hot-blooded characters, and off-the-wall satire from beginning to end, Death of a Movie Star weaves a gripping tale filled with suspense, romance, and humor.
