Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Agatha award-winner Toni L. P. Kelner’s third Where Are They Now? mystery, savvy celebrity reporter and part-time sleuth, Tilda Harper, must go off-script to stop a movie star murder. A Reel Killer When entertainment journalist Tilda Harper is invited to the Cape Cod set of an upcoming action film, she finds there’s just as much drama behind-the-scenes as on the screen. Celebrity stalkers and pushy paparazzi are bad enough, but now it seems that someone wants to shut down the production and its handsome lead... permanently. Rising star John Laryea has come a long way from The Blastoffs, the popular children’s show that launched his career. Pharos could be his breakout hit, but only if he can survive the deadly action off-camera. When a suspicious accident nearly ends John’s career and his life, it’s up to Tilda to figure out who has it in for the Hollywood hunk. It won’t be easy—Tilda’s list of suspects is longer than a blockbuster credit roll. Is it one of the cagey studio execs? A disgruntled screenwriter? An outraged fanboy? Or is one of John’s former Blastoffs costars eager for a lethal reunion? With the help of an old flame, Tilda tries to stop a killer before they can make John’s next scene, his last.

Download or read book The Legacy of Us written by Kristin Contino and published by SparkPress. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking readers from 1905 Italy to present-day Philadelphia, The Legacy of Us uncovers how the lives of three generations of women are changed by love, loss and one little necklace. Liz Moretti thought she knew almost everything about her grandmother, Ella, from her love of "The Golden Girls" to the perfect pound cake recipe. But when Ella passes away and Liz finds a cameo locket with a marriage proposal engraved inside (from a man who was not her grandfather), she realizes that sometimes a person's secrets are discovered only after they're gone. On top of losing Ella, Liz's career as a jewelry designer is stagnant and her love life lacks sparkle, too. When she reconnects with the one who got away, Liz thinks maybe things are finally starting to look up. But after a few drinks and a trip down a flight of stairs, Liz wakes up to realize the cameo is gone. Her ex offers to look for it, but so does Justin, the intriguing new guy in her apartment building. While dealing with her feelings for two very different men and generally trying to reinvent her mess of a life, Liz finds answers and solace in Ella's diary. The story of the cameo, and the relationship between her grandmother and great-grandmother, an outspoken socialite from Italy, inspires Liz to grow up and accept responsibility for her missteps. Eventually she must choose between the life she thought she wanted and the promise of something better.

Download or read book Inherent Vice written by Thomas Pynchon and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-06-13 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The funniest book Pynchon has written." — Rolling Stone "Entertainment of a high order." - Time Part noir, part psychedelic romp, all Thomas Pynchon—private eye Doc Sportello surfaces, occasionally, out of a marijuana haze to watch the end of an era. In this lively yarn, Thomas Pynchon, working in an unaccustomed genre that is at once exciting and accessible, provides a classic illustration of the principle that if you can remember the sixties, you weren't there. It's been a while since Doc Sportello has seen his ex- girlfriend. Suddenly she shows up with a story about a plot to kidnap a billionaire land developer whom she just happens to be in love with. It's the tail end of the psychedelic sixties in L.A., and Doc knows that "love" is another of those words going around at the moment, like "trip" or "groovy," except that this one usually leads to trouble. Undeniably one of the most influential writers at work today, Pynchon has penned another unforgettable book.
