In the spring of 1942, Joe DiMaggio’s enjoying a much better season than either General MacArthur in Corregidor or private eye Toby Peters in Hollywood. Blond bombshell Mae West has just finished her book, a sensational tell-all life story that could turn Tinsel Town into scandal city. When the screed’s stolen from under her generous form by a mysterious psychopath, Peters comes up to see her and agrees to take the case. Before he can tell his famously curvilinear client who’s done her wrong, he finds himself the target of a cross-dressing killer, captive of a methodically mad doctor, and the preview audience for a big-screen plot that threatens not only Mae but also master of spectacle Cecil B. DeMille.

This review is from: He Done Her Wrong (Toby Peters Mysteries) (Paperback)
What could be more sizzling than the autobiography of Mae West? And it's missing in Stuart Kaminsky's Toby Peters mystery HE DONE HER WRONG.What are a few lumps for Tody when he meets up with the sometimes actor Ressner, who took the book. Then things are just beginning to get rough as Toby lands himself in the middle of a family feud and in a sanatorium from which escape may be impossible. But Tody had a tribe of friends who will go to great lengths for their friend and Mae is one tough lady. Nash Black, author of SINS OF THE FATHERS.
