About this ebook
Retired Inspector Jack Bertolino gets his first taste of the erratic nature of Hollywood when A-list producer, George Litton, options one of Jack’s recent cases for a film.
Jack is engaged as the film’s technical advisor, which stars It Girl Susan Blake. But more importantly, he’s on hand to keep a protective eye on Susan, who’s being harassed by a disturbing cyber-stalker.
But that’s not all that starts to turn Jack’s world upside-down. When a five-year-old girl is shot dead in her family’s living room, just blocks from where the movie is being filmed, Jack realizes there are threads connecting the movie, the murder, a brutal gang of brothers, and a terrifying body count.
Will Jack be able to find justice for the young girl and keep Susan safe? Or will this be his last and fatal trip to Hollywood?

4 ratings1 review
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Jack Bertolino, ex-cop now technical advisor and bodyguard to actress Susan Blake - has he own problems for Jack to solve.
Then a young girl is shot near a location shoot and Jack becomes involved in finding her killer.
Unfortunately the story starts towards drugs, drug cartels etc which as a subject I have no interest.
A NetGalley book.
