Hollywood private eye Toby Peters is hired to protect the eccentric and reclusive billionaire Howard Hughes, only to find himself tangled in a web of blackmail, murder, and intrigue that reaches into the highest echelons of Tinseltown. Kaminsky masterfully weaves real historical figures into his fiction, with the legendary Basil Rathbone making a memorable appearance alongside the larger-than-life Hughes. Written with sharp wit, period-perfect atmosphere, and a fast-paced noir sensibility, this mystery captures the seedy glamour of wartime Los Angeles with irresistible charm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956437364955,"sku":"2026100006227-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1d096c7f-78a5-477f-9dd6-8cf6db93d9b8.png?v=1783501047","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006227-secondhand-the-howard-hughes-affair","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
