Southern gal Sarah Booth Delaney packs up her hound dog and her P.I. business and sets off for Hollywood to take a shot at stardom. No stranger to acting, she aces the screen test for a racy remake of the movie Body Heat alongside leading man Graf Miliau. The chemistry between them is undeniable, and why not? Graf has already starred in one of Sarah's previous affairs and is well on his way to landing a big part in the sequel. Thrilled as Sarah is, her dream come true comes at a price. She has to leave behind her family's ancestral home in Mississippi, her closest friends, and the possibility of settling down with her longtime love to film on location in Costa Rica. And it's not long before rivalries flare, mysterious accidents occur, and this leading lady finds herself in some steamy tabloids without turning up in a single frame of film.--From publisher description.… (meer)

Ok, I expected to really dislike this book, based on the reviews of others who reported it to be the weakest book in the series. But even though I dislike taking characters out of their setting most of the time, I still really enjoyed this book. I think it was underlying question of 'is there a ghost or not?" that sort of kept me interested. The author did a great job of leading you to the murderer - giving you enough clues at the right time. Great series. ( )

I really enjoyed reading how Sarah Booth went out to Hollywood and tried to act again. This to me is the best book in the whole series so far. We get to see another ghost where she is staying and her friends come to see her in Costa Rica as well. I hope the author will be putting out a new book soon. ( )

Fast paced, fun read. Kept me interested from beginning to end. ( )

I was really disappointed with this book. I have previously loved the series. In this the main character, a southern ex-daddy's girl, moves to Hollywood for her second chance at making it as an actress. The setting of Hollywood didn't translate well for the southern lady. It was awkward and her "Southerness" was displaced. It wasn't this fun charming story about her roots, and the ties that she has. It became this forced plot, and awkward dialogue. What works in the south for these books doesn't seem to work as well set someplace else, at least for this book. I'm hoping it was a fluke. ( )

I am a great fan of this series about Sarah Booth Delany, and this book is quite readable. But it is not up to the standards I have come to expect, so if you're new to the books about Sara Booth Delaney, go back and start with any of the earlier ones. This one just didn't ring true. Part of the book is about shooting a film in Costa Rica, but no real flavor of the country came through. Some of the middle of the book seemed repetitive, making the same plot points in slightly different ways. And sometimes Jitty was just plain mean to Sarah Booth. ( )
