Advance praise for These Violent Delights:
"These Violent Delights is a haunting fairy tale of filmmaking, rife with dark ironies, blind alleys and stunning revelations. And it gets The Movies right--from glittery surface to sinister undertow. Sharon Linnéa’s yarn sent shivers and shockwaves all the way up to my home in the Hollywood hills."--WESLEY STRICK, screenwriter (Cape Fear, Nightmare on Elm Street)
"Behind the magic delights of the movies lie passions that lead to murder. The characters will haunt you long after you turn the final page." --REBECCA CANTRELL, award-winning author of the Hannah Vogel novels
