"Tess Monaghan is hired by a firm making a t.v. series in Baltimore to protect their leading lady because numerous pranks have been played on the set. Then one of the people connected to the production is beaten to death. I liked the behind the scenes part of teh story but the mystery itself was pretty simple."
"I think Lippman's Tess Monaghan series can be fun. This one was not. I hated the Hollywood drivel, and the plot was not tight. It really wasn't a whodunnit type of story the way it should have been. It was more of a character study; unfortunately, the characters were boring and tedious."
"mystery is not my genre but this was a very easy read- not that that makes this a good book (as you can see by the 2 stars it received). i guess this book disappointed me because it wasn't something you could solve even if you were extra clever. you had to wait for the information to be revealed which doesn't really make it a mystery, right? its more of a story that they tell you how it was solved.
so what's the fun in that? i guess you get to go for a ride with a believable PI into a world that you wouldn't normally experience."
"An engaging story that showcases the goings on within the tv production business. Tess, the detective, in fun to read - - - evidently there are other books in this series, and I'm quite anal about starting in the middle, so now I feel compelled to try to find the first one and read them in order. Not crazy compelled - not dropping what I'm doing to find them, but adding Tess and Lippman to the list."
