A Murder at the Movies A Secret Bookcase Mystery

When bookseller and events organizer Annie Murray invites the glamorous world of Hollywood along to her small-town film festival, she finds herself entangled in a sinister plot as twisted as any big-screen thriller...

After the success of her first event, which revived the fortunes of the bookstore she loves so dearly, Annie is excited to launch Redwood Grove's first film festival. But when an infamous film critic plunges to his death during the premiere of a Hitchcock-inspired thriller, Annie's instincts tell her that this was no accident. She soon discovers that many of the cast, crew and guests are harboring dark secrets; from the lead actress with a scandalous past, to a film historian obsessed with protecting his vintage reel collection.

Determined to unravel the mystery, Annie must sift through a tangled web of hidden agendas and deception to expose the killer before they strike again. Can she crack the case and save her film festival - or will she find herself in the spotlight?

Packed full of plot twists and a colorful cast of characters, A Murder at the Movies sparkles with charm, heart and humor, and will keep cozy mystery fans guessing until the final pages. Perfect fans for Lauren Elliott, Tonya Kappes and Janet Evanovich.

Just the cozy small town mystery I was looking for. The characters are interesting and likeable. (Most are likable anyway.) The setting is superb, with a really neat bookstore, an old school movie theater, a really cool coffee shop and a pub I'd like to frequent myself. The author does a great job making these places come alive with her in depth descriptions and attention to detail.

If you're looking for a cozy mystery with a tight knit community, an adorable town, some delectably described drinks and meals and a murder to be solved, then this book would suit you well.
