Coming Soon...Kit Sloane's latest mystery... The Fat Lady Sings

	In Margot and Max's latest adventure, THE FAT LADY SINGS, things aren’t what they appear to be. But since they work in the film world of make-believe, when are things ever clear-cut and unambiguous? In  THE FAT LADY SINGS, the couple is caught up in a lethal scheme of  connivance, complicity, and murder perpetrated behind the heavy velvet curtains of a reparatory company determined to win an  international prize. Heads roll as egos, reputations, and aspirations clash against the dulcet harmonies and satiric comments of a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta.
Author Kit Sloane’s offbeat stories chronicle the intricacies of  Hollywood filmmaking from the point of view of her protagonist,  feature film editor Margot O'Banion and her significant other,  director Max Skull. The first fiction editor of FUTURES Mystery  Magazine, Kit is a longtime member of Sisters in Crime, Mystery  Writers of America, and Mystery Women of the UK. She was named one of  Mills College’s Literary Women for 2007. Kit and her professor  husband live on a hilltop horse ranch in Northern California's  sublime Lake County wine country.
SOME REVIEWS OF THE PREVIOUS TWO IN THE SERIES: LOCATION LOCATION trumps its predecessors in its hip, insider vision  of both the film world and a country so close to U.S. borders and yet  so distant. —G. Miki Hayden, Edgar winner and author of the award-winning Writing  the Mystery and the new style and composition book, The Naked Writer EXTREME CUISINE is a terrific read, complete with sexy, slightly  larger-than-life characters and lots of L.A. action. LIBRARY JOURNAL Details of the restaurant business, insight into why dinner at a  trendy restaurant "provides an evening of theater," and a behind-the- scenes look at filmmaking frame the story. Well-developed characters  and a further developing romantic relationship between Margot and Max  make for an enjoyable addition to a too-little-known series. —Sue  O'Brien BOOKLIST
