What is meant to be a time of satisfying nostalgia and camaraderie bringing together each month at their private "film club" meetings the greatest screen legends that have ever lived to screen their favorite movies turns into the unexpected. Death. Something has wrenched the last breath from these legendary actors. Something on the screen, something in those movies made their hearts stop. But what? Witnessing these mysterious movie star murders is a beautiful, fiercely independent popular Los Angeles TV news anchor-turned investigator LORI MATRIX, who makes it her business to find out. Racing against time, she tries to solve the unsolvable before another life of a great movie legend is claimed. "Fans of Old Hollywood know Jeff Lenburg as a first-class chronicler of long-ago Tinseltown and its larger-than-life denizens. SCARED TO DEATH shows that he's just as adept in a fictional setting, evoking both a sense of wonder and a delicious sense of dread. Anyone who loves classic movies will love this novel!" - John Wooley, author of AWASH IN THE BLOOD
