Now Damon and his orchestra are off to L.A. for a gig and some publicity. But when they find themselves two members short of a big band, things turn ugly. The body of their substitute trumpet player is found washed up on the beach. And the dame Damon's had his eye on may not be the starry- eyed gal he thought she was. So Damon sets out with his friend Hercules Platt, ex-cop-turned-sax-player, to find the elusive thread linking these situations-and uncover the hidden truth behind the Hollywood façade...
Peter Duchin has been America's preeminent dance-band leader for more than three decades. He is the son of the legendary pianist/band leader Eddie Duchin. The father of three children by a previous marriage, Duchin is married to Brooke Hayward, the writer, and lives in New York City and Washington, Connecticut. He is the author of a best selling personal memoir called Ghost of a Chance, which was published in 1996.
