Synopsis: In the fourth book of the Jocelyn O&’Roarke series, where the eponymous stage actress and sometimes-detective goes, murder follows—even all the way across the country . . . New York City has dried up for Jocelyn &“Josh&” O&’Roarke. Her career on the stage has stalled. Her relationship with NYPD lieutenant Phillip Gerrard is through. She needs a way out, and a supporting role in a Hollywood TV movie seems like just the thing. But once on the West Coast, she discovers that her role is to support washed-up child star Ginger Jellicoe&’s comeback attempt. When Buddy Banks, the production&’s photography director and Ginger&’s surrogate father, is murdered in a darkroom, Josh is pressed once again to put her sleuthing skills to use. With the help of dashing LAPD detective Dwayne Hamill, Josh races to clear Ginger&’s name while keeping the former child star from becoming the killer&’s next victim. Dead Pan is the fourth book in the Jocelyn O&’Roarke mystery series, which begins with Murder on Cue and First Hit of the Season.
