Can your sleuthing skills help identify the murderer of a Hollywood starlet?
Los Angeles, 1958.
The biggest, brightest and best names in Hollywood have gathered at the Royale Premiere Hotel on the eve of the biggest awards show of the year.
Things take a devilish turn when leading lady Blanche Aikerman is found murdered in her room.
With a list of suspects as long as Aikerman’s accolades and credits, YOU are thrust into the action and must fully immerse yourself in the role of an LAPD homicide detective on the scene to hunt, capture and correctly charge the culprit.
Blending all the fun and appeal of the traditional hard-boiled detective story with a classic choose-your-own-story model, the book throws you right into the thick of the action. Larger-than-life characters, cunning suspects and puzzling mis-directions will try to throw you off the scent as you are presented with a series of choices at every turn of the page.
Be cautious during your investigation: some decisions will lead you to a murderer, just not the right murderer…
Transporting the reader right into the heart of 1950s Los Angeles, Murder in Tinseltown is a brand-new, interactive novel full of head-scratching interactions, multiple outcomes and clues set against the glamorous backdrop of Hollywood’s Golden Age.
