When I was growing up, I regularly watched detective shows on TV and read detective novels. I always thought it would be fun to grow up to be a detective. That didn’t happen, but I still enjoy a good detective story.
Tinseltown Riff has the exciting feel of a 1970’s Hollywood crime caper with it’s classic themes and situations, but it’s been modernized for the new millennium. As a lifelong Southern California resident, the setting and descriptions of the area gave the story a realistic feel.
Shelly Frome has a passion for mysteries and theatre. He’s a member of the Mystery Writers of America and is a former professor of dramatic arts and actor. Tinseltown Riff combines both of his areas of expertise.
Tinseltown Riff is a fun read that’s a nice escape!
