| A film version of The Tempest, William Shakespeare’s final play, featuring the cream of Hollywood’s aristocratic British Colony? When the project is announced in 1948, it sounds like an idea that can’t miss. But then the whispers start about one of those British actors and a burlesque queen, and murder follows shortly. Enter Scott Elliott, top operative of Hollywood Security and the soon-to-be husband of the lovely Ella Englehart. To get to the altar, Elliott must dodge blonde bombshells and gangsters, and solve a mystery that echoes Shakespeare’s crowning work. | |
