Walk the blood red carpet with these two authors in their tales of murder and mystery among celebrities. In Sophie Hénaff‘s Police People, currently available in French, a detective and her starstruck partner must solve the disappearance of a famous actress. In Anne-Sophie Jouhanneau‘s We Would Never Tell, a group of women make their way to France for the Cannes Film Festival, to work their way up the Hollywood ladder, only to be put on hold when a multi-million-dollar necklace disappears and a dead body is found in the Mediterranean. Join these authors as they discuss how these settings contribute to a good mystery and why celebrities make good victims – or detectives! Just because there’s a spotlight, doesn’t mean it’s easy to look for clues.
