Alfred Hitchcock in the Vertigo Murders (Alfred Hitchcock Mystery S.) - Softcover

The year is 1957. Alfred Hitchcock is immersed in the production of his latest film, Vertigo, when he receives a macabre present: the severed ear of a woman. Fearing the ear has to do with the grisly death of a young starlet, Hitchcock decides to investigate. Joining forces with retired L.A.P.D. detective Chess Slattery, Hitch follows a trail that takes the pair from the mansions of Bel Air to the degraded haunts of Hollywood wannabes to the shabby bungalows of Venice. What they discover puts them in the path of a twisted killer hell-bent on ruining the famous Hitchock profile. Movie stars, gangsters and cops, the famous and the not-so-famous, all swept up in a relentless series of events that threaten to spiral out of control and into disaster - until Hitch masterminds a thrilling finale worthy of Vertigo itself!
