Selznick's Confidant
(2026)(The third book in the Hollywood's Greatest Year Trilogy series)
A novel by Martin Turnbull
Ludlow Sinclair is an impeccably tailored gentleman who glides among Hollywood’s elite, earning the trust of lonely, wealthy wives of studio moguls. Adept at keeping their indiscretions private, Luddie maintains a lucrative lifestyle—but harbors a deeper secret: his long-buried past.
As David O. Selznick pushes himself to exhaustion bringing his four-million-dollar epic, Gone with the Wind, to the screen, unbearable stress and sleepless nights drive him to Luddie for dangerous favors. Luddie soon finds himself embroiled in perilous conflicts far beyond high-society gossip and foxtrotting at the Cocoanut Grove.
Meanwhile, a ruthless adversary from his darker days threatens to expose his true identity and destroy everything he’s built. Worse still, this thug seeks revenge on Selznick by targeting Sea Change—a production Luddie’s close friends will need to succeed.
With his reputation, his future, and the fate of 1939’s greatest movie triumph on the line, Luddie must outwit powerful forces conspiring against him in a town where favors and fraud reign hand-in-hand.
From the author of the Garden of Allah novels comes the engrossing conclusion to the Hollywood’s Greatest Year trilogy—a captivating tale of ambition, deception, and betrayal set during the movie capital’s unparalleled year.
