(2025)(The eighth book in the Elsie Hargrove Mystery series)
A novel by Claire Blackwood
Lights, camera, murder.
When a prestigious television show shoots its new season in Cascade Bay, Private Detective Elsie Hargrove gets to enjoy watching the production in her hometown. It's supposed to be fun—a chance to be near the movie star Adam Blade. But when the bodies start dropping, Elsie discovers that in Hollywood, nothing is ever quite what it seems.
With fake blood contaminating the crime scene, the real murder method is hidden behind layers of movie magic. Working with Chief of Police Jack Goodman, while navigating the pressure-cooker atmosphere of a film set, Elsie must decode which performances are real and which are just for the cameras. As tensions escalate, she realizes the killer knows how to direct the perfect crime. In this world where everyone's playing a role, the most dangerous performance might be her last.
Perfect for fans of cozy mysteries with international flair, "Director's Cut" delivers Claire Blackwood's signature blend of small-town charm, daring escapades, and the complex chemistry between Elsie and Jack that readers have come to love.
