I was delighted by this campy romp about an interesting cast of characters muddling their way through adapting an old hack’s books about a sadistic goddess. I think describing it as a mystery does it a disservice, since it’s really just an enjoyable and very funny story more so than a traditional mystery. I loved the parody of the characters and the brilliant “excerpts” from the original Kali-Ra books.

A serviceable plot, film star reads b-movie type book, wants to make the movie, complications ensue. Just don't think the author goes far enough with it. If you're going to do a pastiche, go all in, like in the Abyerystwth books of Malcolm Price. One crazed fan stalking a couple of people didn't make it odd enough, for my taste. Did feel author did a good job piecing everything together and tying up lose ends.
