Mase McKnight, book 1
Spring 1945. The war is nearly over, Hollywood’s studio system is at the height of its power, and Los Angeles is busy reinventing itself. When movie star Dina Leigh disappears, Premiere Pictures sends its fixer, Mase McKnight, to contain the problem. The deeper he goes, the less the case resembles a studio scandal and the more it becomes a story about family, grief, identity, and possession.
