Frankly, a killer doesn’t give a damn about offing Clark Gable—or
Toby Peters—in this “fast-paced and colorful addition to a very
successful series” (Publishers Weekly). On December 10, 1938,
Atlanta burned again. In the back lot at David O. Selznick’s
studio, sets from a dozen old pictures were pushed together and set
ablaze to provide a backdrop for the climax of what Selznick promised
to be the movie of the century: Gone with the Wind. Toby Peters, then
just a studio security guard, was on hand to help keep the Confederate
extras in line. When the fire was over, he found one of them dead,
impaled on his own sword. Five years later, Peters scratches out a
living as a private detective for Hollywood’s best known stars. Now
it’s Clark Gable who needs his help. He’s been getting death
threats. On the back of a cryptic poem, the sleuth finds a list of
people on scene the night the extra died. Two are already dead, and
the rest are next. Sure enough, one of those marked for death is
Gable. The other is Toby Peters . . . “Nostalgic readers with
a yen for the good old days . . . will find Kaminsky’s story
entertaining, clever, eminently readable, and chock-full of snippets
from Hollywood’s Golden Age.” —Booklist
