Vamp

By Loren D. Estleman
Vamp by Loren D. Estleman digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Vamp is a hot new Valentino mystery by Loren D. Estleman, the master of the hard-boiled detective novel and recipient of the Private Eye Writers of America Lifetime Achievement Award.

Renowned film detective Valentino is on a quest to help restore The Comet, an extinct drive-in movie theater, and his trail leads him to Leo Kalishnikov, who requests a favor first—rid him of a blackmailer from his shady past, and he'll gladly hand over the money that The Comet needs.

With only an uncashed check for a clue, Valentino embarks on a treacherous path to save not only The Comet but the last remaining print of the 1917 film Cleopatra, which has been lost for over a century. The film is somewhere in Los Angeles, and Valentino is willing to risk it all to find it. He must navigate the shady underbelly of Hollywood once more, in a dangerous adventure that threatens not only his career—but his life.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Vamp Reviews

3.0
“An easy read for classic movie lovers. This was a short detective fiction with a colorful cast of characters and a kind of ridiculous, incomprehensible plot. I almost dnf’d but stuck with it because the writing style was fun and the characters were fleshed out and eclectic. The plot is definitely forgettable but the author did his research for the classic movies he references. I’m not what I would classify myself as a fan of old Hollywood but I was still entertained and able to follow along with the references to entertainment history I’ve never heard of. I will definitely check out other works by this author.”
