Following the death of Joel Goodman, reporter Thomas Cleary is sent to interview the legendary film-maker’s daughter, Lily.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
It’s hard not to be seduced by this Gatsby-like story about an ambitious young reporter who gets tangled up with Hollywood’s most exclusive clique, including the stylish daughter of a legendary studio head, a taciturn media mogul and a world-famous starlet. Thomas Cleary is thrilled by the opportunity to write Joel Goldman’s obituary. But not in his wildest dreams could he have imagined where that high-profile assignment would lead him. We loved getting lost in the lush details of the glam life—and following along as Thomas unravels the mystery of a reclusive beauty who’s never left the grounds of a Bel Air mansion.
