This is certainly a different take on your “typical” murder mystery. Ken Allen had a one-time not-quite-starring role as Jove Brand. Needless to say, the movie flopped and he went on to become a private investigator. Through his role of Jove Brand, he met special effects guru, Ray Ford, and they formed a friendship … all these many years later.

They say heroes never die since they live on in memory. That’s not true in this book.

Ended up enjoying although it started off slow. At times it felt like a sequel but to my knowledge it is not part of a series. There was some back story and asides that made it slow at times. Overall, a very creative tale with a wonderful character base and interesting plot. The main character Ken reminded me a great deal of Sean on “Psych!” Very funny. I could see this being a base for a movie or tv show. The ending was a bit of a let down, but nicely tied up. I wonder if this will be the start
