Unfortunately, Midnight Ink closed before we could release the third book. Alas, it's just a document on my laptop right now. Hopefully one day we'll be able to release it though.

READ WITH ME: AN ANNOTATED GUIDE TO HOLLYWOOD HOMICIDE CHAPTERS 6 – 10

My friend Rosey had the great idea to annotate a copy of Hollywood Homicide for a giveaway. I thought I’d take it one step further and share some insights in a blog post as well. (And I’m not just doing this because my handwriting is atrocious!)
