Love Me Or Grieve Me: A Madison Night Cozy Mystery
Author: Diane Vallere
Publisher: Polyester Press
ISBN: 1954579403
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
Reports of Madison Night’s death have been greatly exaggerated… When a junior copy editor at the local newspaper mistakenly uses interior decorator Madison Night’s life story in the obituary of a recently deceased woman with a similar name, Madison’s life turns upside down. Addison Nigh, a once in-demand jazz vocalist, had fallen into obscurity, and her death notice surprises only those who thought she died decades ago. Canceled lines of credit and a swarm of condolences to Madison’s loved ones are just the tip of the iceberg, but when the decorator discovers evidence that the real dead woman played a part in an unsolved murder, their identity mix-up gives Madison backstage access to a life of secrets. As parallels between the singer’s life and her own become impossible to ignore, Madison questions the true price of fame. But Madison isn’t the only one to discover the singer’s buried secrets, and if she’s not careful, the next obituary might be her own. Can Madison protect a lyrical past with notes similar to her own, or will exposing the truth be her swan song? The Madison Night Mysteries feature a main character who has modeled her life and business after the actress. Each book winks at a different Doris Day movie while delivering a contemporary mystery with an engaging supporting cast. For fans of Doris Day, mid-century modern decorating, Dallas, Texas, over-50 protagonists, amateur sleuths, women sleuths, cozy mystery, traditional mystery, vintage style.

Terror Television
Author: John Kenneth Muir
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476604169
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 687
Book Description
Although horror shows on television are popular in the 1990s thanks to the success of Chris Carter's The X-Files, such has not always been the case. Creators Rod Serling, Dan Curtis, William Castle, Quinn Martin, John Newland, George Romero, Stephen King, David Lynch, Wes Craven, Sam Raimi, Aaron Spelling and others have toiled to bring the horror genre to American living rooms for years. This large-scale reference book documents an entire genre, from the dawn of modern horror television with the watershed Serling anthology, Night Gallery (1970), a show lensed in color and featuring more graphic makeup and violence than ever before seen on the tube, through more than 30 programs, including those of the 1998-1999 season. Complete histories, critical reception, episode guides, cast, crew and guest star information, as well as series reviews are included, along with footnotes, a lengthy bibliography and an in-depth index. From Kolchak: The Night Stalker to Millennium, from The Evil Touch to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Twin Peaks, Terror Television is a detailed reference guide to three decades of frightening television programs, both memorable and obscure.
