Brought to you by Penguin.
Hollywood has it’s secrets. But so does Loretta…
Loretta bursts onto Sunset Boulevard brimming with moxie – she knows that if you want to get anywhere in life, you have to make it happen yourself. And boy is she determined to make her dreams come true!
Only Loretta is getting the backlot tour of Tinseltown. It turns out that where the palm trees disappear and the trash vans are parked up, this town of fantasy and make-believe is less dashing fellas sipping chilled martinis – more sticky floors and misbehaving men.
However Hollywood may have bitten off more than it can chew with Loretta because there's not just lipstick lurking in her beauty case.
This may be her dream, but she's stepped out from Hollywood's nightmares.
And Loretta Darling bites back
