Lights! Camera! Murder!: A Jake Russo Mystery

Jake Russo Mysteries #5

by Phil Edwards

When Jake Russo went to Los Angeles, he expected a romantic vacation. He thought he'd report on his photographer's new TV show, spend a few hours in the sun, and even take his relationship with his girlfriend to the next level. But it doesn't take long for his vacation to turn into an investigation. When a mysterious death happens in a Hollywood mansion, Jake has to work with his photographer, girlfriend, and a few other friends to find the killer before there's another final cut. Jake is forced to negotiate Hollywood high life, tackle high-flying eccentrics, and see if he's really the man he thought he was before he came to LA. As bold as the Hollywood sign on a sunny day, this mystery is what the trade papers call a "laffer"—funny, outrageous, and packed with plenty of adventure before the credits roll.

I did not like this book. It was dragging on. A lot of nonsense to fill the pages. Supposedly Funny little things said about murder which were not funny at all.
