Hooray for Hollywood? The saucy sleuth Sammy Keyes discovers otherwise in this spirited mystery. When Sammy’s mother dumped her with Grams to go to Hollywood and become a star, Sammy dealt with it.

One of Lana’s biggest competitor is found dead in the room next door. Is Sammy’s mother the next victim…or the prime suspect?
