Dead Famous - Paperback

by Ruby Fox (Author)

A high-profile journalist, a career headed for rock bottom, and the Hollywood murder mystery that could fix it all!

After she gets a story catastrophically wrong, celebrity columnist, Katherine 'Kat' Alley, is shipped off to Los Angeles and given one last chance. Her brief? A simple retrospective on Xander Hill, long-dead movie star and the victim of one of Hollywood's most enduring murder mysteries. Kat has a better idea: solve the fifty-year-old cold case and resurrect her reputation.

But digging up the past unearths the last witness she expects (or wants): A witness who makes her question everything she believes about her job, herself, and the invisible line between this life and the next. The more Kat uncovers, the more she realises that everyone in Hollywood has a secret and nothing is what it seems. Can she solve the mystery of who killed Xander Hill before time runs out?

As thrilling as it is funny, and with more twists than a curly straw, Dead Famous will have you falling in love with your new favourite amateur detective quicker than you can say, "And the Oscar goes to..."

"Whip smart, hilarious and brimming with intrigue. I devoured it in one sitting!" - Emma Grey, author of The Last Love Note
