Solving their own murders is the least of their problems…and the beginning of Stone & Steele, a reluctant yet surprisingly skilled investigative team.

The Golden Age of Hollywood, 1938. Vivian Steele moved to California to start a new life. She opened a fashion boutique in Beverly Hills, befriended Carole Lombard, the actress, and married a successful banker. But when her husband is murdered, Vivian discovers she isn’t the only one hiding a few secrets.

An anonymous phone call lures Vivian to a plush hotel room where she stumbles upon the dead body of a beautiful young actress – her husband’s mistress. To add fuel to the fire, she’s not alone.

Preston Stone, Hollywood’s beloved playboy and Vivian’s nemesis, is standing beside her. Suspiciously, they part ways only to find themselves alone again at a movie premiere two days later, and the message becomes brutally clear. They’re both the next targets of a cold-blooded killer.

Together, Vivian and Preston are thrown into a deadly race to find a missing collection of valuable coins and stop a vicious killer before they become the next murder victims. But first, they need to stop pointing their fingers at each other.

A Perilous Premiere is the first book in this exciting new 1930s murder mystery series starring a great cast of characters ranging from the rich and famous to Bella, a Boston Terrier, her new friend, Boris, a Saint Bernard, and a few other endearing folks.

My Review

Two brand new protagonists and the first book in an exciting new series. No, not Stone and Steele! It’s Bella, the Boston Terrier and her friend, Boris, the giant Saint Bernard.

I jest. The dogs aren’t very good at solving crimes, but Preston Stone and Vivian Steele are. It’s just that they hate each other, and constantly bicker. It’s a shame, because they are actually very good at working together, but it does make the story more entertaining.

Vivian Steele moved to California to begin a new life. She owns a fashion boutique and designs all the clothes herself. She’s beautiful and talented, and counts the famous actress Carol Lombard amongst her best friends. Then her husband George is murdered and she finds herself in grave danger.

Preston Steele is a rich, handsome playboy, with a string of broken hearts behind him, including Vivian’s sister Patricia. He’s also caught up in the same dangerous game as Vivian, but can they put their differences behind them and work together?

Well we’ll have to see, but by the end of the book. it looks a bit more promising. It’s going to be a cracker of a series I feel, with our intrepid investigators at the helm, two cute dogs, Nora at the boutique, Preston’s sidekick Nick, and lots of others from the world of Hollywood glamour.
