From Publishers Weekly
Filmdom meets history?and murder?in the second charming Queenie Davilov mystery (after Murder Offscreen). When a scriptwriter vanishes from location in Spain, director/producer Fernando Frazier brings in Queenie to complete the script for a film that tells a true story from the Spanish Civil War. But Queenie soon discovers that Fernando and his half-brother, Carlos Ballester, who arranged the film's financing, have very different ideas about the movie's plot and the history it purports to tell?the saga of their mother, who was denounced as a traitor during the war and executed by her rural village's political boss. Fernando claims she was betrayed, while Carlos dismisses this argument as "nonsense." As Queenie gathers information about past and present mysteries, she needs longer than does the reader to figure out that the two are intertwined. A look at the unfinished film and her sixth sense send her digging for a corpse, but not in time to prevent another death. Her minor mental foot-dragging aside, Queenie is an engaging sleuth who moves easily on a convincing stage populated with varied characters who spice up the story with their surprises.
