"A famous movie star found dead on the set of his latest picture... drugs hastily disposed of at the scene of the crime... it's the stuff of Tinseltown scandal and could ruin the investment Harry Bannock made in the dead man's library of films. For help, Bannock turns to Mark Clayburn, a one-eyed private eye with his own history of scandals. But can Clayburn uncover the truth about Dick Ryan's murder before time runs out for Ryan's co-stars... and for Clayburn himself?" --
