About

Hollywood might look like an oasis from the devastation of WWII, but that doesn't mean it's safe... Hollywood, 1943: Annie Laurence moves from New York to Hollywood to start her new life as a murder mystery screenwriter-only to learn that the controlling studio head thinks women can only write light romances. To get a foot in the door, Annie starts volunteering at the Hollywood Canteen, a club for servicemen run exclusively by industry members. Her second night at the Canteen, however, a particularly vicious critic is murdered. Annie sees a chance to prove her worth as a mystery writer by solving the case, and she chronicles her investigation in an anonymous magazine column-even as other club members, including herself, become targets.
