Description
New Year's Day, 1929. "You're one nervy little sheba," Miles muttered. The swashbuckling actor towed the girl down a preposterously long corridor. Miles hasn't let go of my elbow the whole time, she gloated to herself. I wish I had a camera. No one will believe me. L.A. Scandals declared him six feet, four inches; she guessed the tabloid was correct. Miles was even more debonair in person. His voice, as deep and rumbly as a freight train, fit him perfectly. She wondered why he had not yet made talkies. Darla Murphy gets tossed out of a New Year's party at the swankiest mansion in Beverly Hills-and that's just the beginning of her adventures. The starry-eyed gatecrasher-clever, lovely, lively, and brave-is destined for a meteoric rise to fame and wealth in Hollywoodland. The Queen of Shebas is the first book in the Cappalletti trilogy. This prequel reveals the origins of the fictitious mob families of Wolves Behind You. In this tale, the ancestors of the Cappallettis and the O'Rourkes tear up the scenery in Los Angeles in the Roaring Twenties. Their destinies converge when the young actress enters their world of speakeasies, around-the-clock parties, fast money, and endless danger.
