โฆ Synopsis
In 1938, when running to her future and trying to escape his past, only one place will do. Destination? Hollywood!
Yearning to be a star, Vivian is anxious to leave small-town farm life behind. Marriage, kids, and endless chores don't fit into her plans. If she doesn't escape, she'll repeat her mother's life and her dreams will be doomed.
Brokenhearted, Markus has little to show for his life, save for the simple pleasures of Budapest. But someone certainly thinks he's worth noticing, and he's forced to flee when the attention turns deadly. Walking away from his mother and sister might be the only thing to save them. Or it might put them within grasp of a madman.
Hollywood beckons with its bright lights and grand opportunities. It seems big enough to make her dreams come true and for his past to be concealed. But within the shadowy streets, dusty canvas flaps of the circus, and inside the movie studio, creeps mystery and danger. Will they be caught in the crosshairs of a plot that's turned international and lethal?
If you enjoy historical fiction, the big dreams of classic Hollywood, and heart-racing mystery, order your copy of Painted Faces today.
