Murder Makes a Comeback

By: Mangum, M. R.

Hollywood's Golden Age is ending - and the glitter is beginning to crack.

In 1950, A.J. Brockett reigns over Camelot, a fantasy estate perched above the California coast. His seventy-seventh birthday costume gala promises spectacle: legends, lovers, and the powerful elite dressed in silk and secrets.

But beneath the music and champagne:

- A fugitive from war-torn Europe carries a new face - and unfinished business.
- A media empire trembles under the weight of mortality.
- Hollywood's most influential gossip columnist circles like a vulture.
- Jealous heirs calculate inheritance.
- Lovers trade affection for advantage.
- And somewhere in the shadows, revenge prepares its entrance.

When murder strikes, Camelot transforms from palace to prison.

Meanwhile, newcomer Martin West, an unpublished writer fleeing New York rejection, arrives in California chasing opportunity - only to find himself entangled in a labyrinth of power, scandal, and bloodshed.

From London and Vienna to New York and the sun-scorched terraces of Hollywood, Murder Makes a Comeback blends classic noir atmosphere with psychological suspense, high-society drama, and post-war reckoning.

In a world built on illusion, someone is determined to make death the headline.
