We’re going on a different ride this week. A couple weeks ago a proposal came my way, a proposal to get a pre-release copy of a murder mystery, read it, then blog about it. She acknowledged this might be “too far afield” from my normal posts. After all, Sanslartigue is sub-titled “The Silent Camera.” But the book’s prologue starts out “There’s no mistaking death.” I was hooked! So, we’re off to Los Angeles, for a visit to Hollywood and downtown LA, with a little help from Phillip Marlowe and Raymond Chandler, a few photos by yours truly and my Dad, and the hope that I don’t lose you along the way!
The book is It’s In His Kiss, by Vickie Lester. She’s also known for Beguiling Hollywood, one of the sexiest blogs I know.
“Tall, aren’t you?” she said.
“I didn’t mean to be.”
Her eyes rounded. She was puzzled. She was thinking. I could see, even on that short acquaintance, that thinking was always going to be a bother to her.”
― Raymond Chandler, The Big Sleep
The first one looks exotic.

well that sounds like too much fun…

David! I will be your guide through Hollywood anytime—but not this week, hotter than Beezebub’s den—in May… Thank you! Love yours and your dad’s photos!
Thank you!
