Information
I've always enjoyed reading mystery novels. I'm hoping that the Phantoms of Hollywood Series, which I'm currently working on, has created a captivating platform for a new mystery series. Kit FitzSimons, our heroine, works as a screenwriter for a Hollywood studio. In her capacity as a "script doctor" she and her loyal sidekick, Cliff Hawken, have developed the knack of taking whatever script Kit is working on and solving the "backstory" mystery that stirs the plot. When the mystery is solved … the script is finished ... and ... lights, camera, action!
Additional Information
It seems like whenever Kit FitzSimons, a talented screenwriter with a major Hollywood studio, is called upon to lend her services as a "script doctor" for a screenplay in progress, more often than not, she ends up being lulled into the murky depths of an unsolved mystery. Joining Kit in her sleuthing duties is fellow employee, Cliff Hawken, a World War II veteran who works in the studio's Security Department. Together, whenever called upon, they manage to create a surprise ending that not only solves a lingering mystery but also enhances the box office appeal of any script on which they collaborate. Follow Kit FitzSimons and Cliff Hawken as they pursue the elusive Phantoms of Hollywood. Book 1 of the Series sets the stage with Secrets of the Boulevard. Book 2, Ghosted Script, reveals the true story behind one of the greatest films ever made. Book 3, Failure to Testify, examines the verdict of an infamous trial that will never fade from memory. And there's more on the way!
