This is Hollywood, 1948. You are a beautiful young actress. He is a ruthless and powerful film producer. He can make you a star or send you back to the sticks, and you have something he wants, right now. What are you willing to do? How much of yourself are you willing to give?"A gripping read that challenges traditional genre definitions with a multifaceted story that's hard to put down. Diane Donovan, Midwest Book Review..A Broadway Baby, a dark-eyed, seemingly innocent beauty. A refugee from destroyed Berlin, a hardened blonde angel. They both arrive in Hollywood just after World War II. They both have brains and ambition. One will become a star but sacrifice everything she loves; the other will become the victim of a sexual predator too powerful to be denied-or prosecuted." . . . a hard look behind the curtains of glittering 1948 Hollywood. It is a story of two independent, strong-willed and ambitious young women, Priscilla (aka Pamela Carr) from South Dakota and Anna from wartime Germany. As they try to succeed in this special world, men like studio mogul Morton Blackwell have the power to make or break them-personally and professionally. Andersen captures the unique ambiance of the time with a creative writing style that flows effortlessly." Maria Victoria Beltran Readers' Favorite Reviews

A GRAPHIC NOVEL WITH NO PICTURESGreat comic strips sometimes come from earnest but neurotic philosophers (Charles M. Schulz, Peanuts) or seething monsters (Al Capp, L'il Abner). But the creators are seldom seen or talked about by their readers. Read it, chuckle, don't, move on to the next Skittle in your day. "The Dead Cartoonist" is fabulously successful but emotionally disturbed comic strip creator Milton Morey. Or maybe it's Nate Thurringer, whose quirky strip barely rates a blip in the comics world.By a stroke of chance, Nate is present when Morey's family finds out he has been kidnapped. Nate, accompanied by Morey's Romanian lover, Crina Vraca, sets off on a rescue mission from the suburbs of America to the French Riviera, across Spain and finally to Hollywood. The story winds through madness, a fake kidnapping, extortion, family drama, love on the run, a real kidnapping, cynical manipulation, and heartfelt longing. Oh, and comedy bits on almost every page, and enough comics memes and references to fill a Comic-Con roundtable. This is a graphic novel with no pictures. Readers are free to create the images described in the text in whatever style they like.". . . strong in comics history and culture; a social commentary and a story of loyalty and intrigue that will delight a wide audience."
