Stories for a Good Cause

This book, put out to raise funds to help victims of the 2025 Los Angeles wild fires, contains sixteen stories set in and around Hollywood. Over the course of the series, we meet just about everyone who works in the entertainment business from writers to character actors to caterers to directors to casting directors. Unfortunately, for all of these people, they are about to find themselves playing some deadly games. And yes, we do occasionally leave the Southern California area to find murder and mayhem on location.

Being an LA resident, I wanted to get this book to support the cause. And I enjoyed the stories by Ellen Byron and Wendall Thomas the most, no surprise since I like their books in general. But, when read back-to-back, these stories overall have a sameness to them. Not every story, but the majority. This isn’t to say the stories are poorly written or bad. I was engaged by the characters as the entertaining plots unfolded. I think if I had spaced these stories out a bit more, I would have enjoyed the book overall. So, my recommendation is that you pick up this book and do just that.
