About this listen
Bobby Montegue doesn’t want to go to jail for killing an abusive movie executive. Problem is, he’s the obvious suspect. If he doesn’t find the real murderer, it’s curtains for Bobby.
It’s 1923 and Bobby is a movie star. Almost. His good looks and youthful charm have taken him to the cusp of Hollywood fame, along with his co-star Bo-Bo, the Jack Russell Terrier. Of course that’s before the movie executive who hates Bobby turns up dead and Bobby is the number one suspect. Bobby has to depend on his new friend Clara Bow and his eccentric mother--who both share a supernatural gift with Bobby. Then there’s Bo-Bo’s trainer Rick, who just might be the perfect man for Bobby, but he has to stop the killings before someone he loves dies at the hand of the true murderer.
This cozy mystery has a bit of it all, an amateur sleuth with a special gift, a trained dog, and a budding romance surrounded by a cast of eccentric Hollywood types. D.A.E. Jackson gives you a 1920s cozy with a different kind of main character. He’s young, gay and almost famous--and he’ll be lucky to come out of this with a career, let alone as a free man.

Love the story
What stood out to me for this novel was the concept of a gay cozy mystery set around 1920s Hollywood. That combination was music to my ears, so I decided to give the virtual voice thing a try. I did have to re-listen to certain sections to make sure I understood who was saying what, since the virtual voice didn't distinguish between characters, but honestly I would listen to this virtual voice over some certain narrators who I just can't bring myself to listen to. The fun concept is great, and this introduction to the series sets the stage well. I hope the author involves Bo-Bo more in future installments. I'll be checking out the second book next!
