Riassunto

AUTHOR IS RANKED TOP 100 BEST SELLER -- HOLLYWOOD PLAYS FOR KEEPS reveals the raw, real underbelly of the acting world, a contrary world where the smaller the stakes the more vicious the competition. In this novel, punctuated with dark humor and provocative satire, has-beens and wannabes mingle with stars under the spotlights where sex is currency and murder lurks in the wings. With the studio system in Hollywood replaced by the small theatre training ground, the “play’s the thing” as actors claw their way from the seedy Valentine Theatre to the big screen. With opening night looming and careers at stake, the multiple rich characters stop at nothing to win their fifteen minutes of fame. AMAZON REVIEWS: "Riveting story. I had to resist skipping to the end to find out what happened to Veronica, an amateur writer and marginal actress. I wanted to jump in the story and knock some heads together. The setting of all the characters at the bottom of the Hollywood setting Is both sad and disgusting. The story of the preparation of a play to be put on at a rat infested, run down theater was worth the read. The murder mystery and suspense was frosting on the cake. Ms. Manolakas is a gifted writer with a superb talent for putting you in the setting. Warning - don't start reading until you have time!"
