Written by Marian Babson. When two grand dames of Hollywood, silent film star Eve Sinclair ('she put the sin in Cinema') and ex-hoofer Trixie Dolan set out for London to attend a film retrospective held in Eve's honour, they fully expect to be the centre of attention. What they don't expect is that all the lovely attention will be generated not by an appreciation of their talents but by a series of grisly murders associated with the retrospective. Even less do they expect to find themselves co-starring as the prime suspects in the entire murder investigation!The well-known fact that life imitates the movies is borne out shortly following the opening of the festival when several murders are committed, and each one is straight out of a scene from Eve's old films. Suspects include a group of would-be thespians occupying the flat above Eve's and a few jealous old cronces. Eve and Trixie once again pool their talents in order to find the cinematic culprit ...and barlye avoid ending up on the cutting floor themselves, so to speak. Marian Babson was born in Salem, Massachusetts, but has lived in London for the greater part of her life. She worked in many different kinds of business before becoming a full-time writer.
