As England swelters during the hottest summer on record, Posie Parker, Private Detective, is summoned to Worton Hall Film Studios, where she steps into the heart of a sinister new mystery.
Silvia Hanro, the famously beautiful movie star, has received death threats alongside her morning coffee, and Posie is tasked with protecting her. Aided by her good friends Lady Dolly Cardigeon and Chief Inspector Richard Lovelace, Posie soon realises that behind the cheap canvas sets and the dreamy glamour of the Studios a dreadful secret lays buried, and traitors lurk everywhere.
And then, good as their word, the killer strikes...
Can Posie uncover the murderer before they kill again?
Can she protect herself and her friends in a world where quite literally nothing is as it seems? And can she rescue her own engagement to the gorgeous Alaric Boynton-Dale from the brink of disaster by using a few of the tricks she has learnt on set?
This is a classic Golden Age of Crime murder mystery which will appeal to fans of Agatha Christie and **Downton Abbey. '**Murder of a Movie Star' is the fifth book in the Posie Parker Mystery Series, although the novel can be enjoyed as a stand-alone.
