Fallen Star by Allison MorseMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Fallen Star by Allison Morse is set in the turbulent world of 1970's Hollywood. Kate Bloom, a youngish, aspiring documentary filmmaker is the granddaughter of a famous 1940's Hollywood film star, Gloria Reardon, who was murdered. Kate sets out to figure out just what happened and uncovers the clue she might need, an old film canister that might contain enough information to finally solve the mystery. Working with Dylan, an esteemed film restorer, they endeavor to put together the pieces of the puzzle, but may actually be putting themselves in harms way. While some of the characters were unlikeable, Morse pulls off this novel with panache and style, capturing the essence of the 1970's mixed with a bit of intrigue and mystery. A must read for film buffs and mystery lovers.
