About the Book

These are the collected Rita Farmer Mysteries by Elizabeth Sims: THE ACTRESS, THE EXTRA, and ON LOCATION. They're full and complete! This is a meaty volume and a great value.

THE ACTRESS
"Sims's wry commentary on life in Hollywood is dead-on."-- Publishers Weekly
Aspiring actress and single mother Rita Farmer has gone from struggling to find work to downright desperate. If she doesn't land a paying job soon-horror movie, soap commercial, anything-she's afraid her ex-husband will use her dire financial straits to take away Petey, her cherished four-year-old son. While she's charming the crowd at storytime at the L.A. public library, a celebrity defense attorney approaches her with an unusual job offer: So long as she's discreet, Rita can rake in a thousand dollars a day preparing his client for her appearance in court.
Easy money? Hardly. His client, Eileen Tenaway, is not only a wealthy heiress and a queen of the tabloids but she's been charged with the murder of her own child. The attorney needs Rita to coach Eileen secretly to help her seem more sympathetic, more human. He needs the jury to believe not only her words but the subtle cues of body language, facial expressions, even vocal style.
Rita knows she can do it, but what she doesn't know is how determined she'll become to find out what really happened to Eileen's family-once her own life and Petey's life depend on it.

THE EXTRA
"Sims, whose The Actress won high acclaim, outdoes herself. The Extra is sure to appeal to fans of complex plots and strong women." -Richmond Times-Dispatch
Rita Farmer knows what it feels like to be flat broke. Even now, when studying to be a lawyer, Rita is so far in debt that she has to scrounge for acting jobs to keep herself and her son afloat. Decked out in police uniform as an extra on a low-budget movie shoot, she wanders into a rough part of town and is pulled into a vicious assault. Rita chases off the assailants but doesn't escape unscathed, and the boy they attacked isn't out of danger yet. His injuries could last the rest of his life.
Rita's heart goes out to him and his grandmother, Amaryllis B. Cubitt, the director of an urban mission that Rita had turned to for help years ago. But the mission has changed from its unassuming past and is now flush with secret donations and gruff guards posted at the doors. Rita can't but wonder if now Amaryllis is too proud to ask for the help she needs.

ON LOCATION
"Fast-paced, atmospheric mystery...Sims shines in her deft characterizations, and in the descriptive passages that call the gloomy Northwest skies 'stomped-newspaper gray' and the Puget Sound waters 'slaty and ominous'. The rains are so vividly depicted that readers may find themselves reaching for a warm jacket-even in midsummer."--Seattle Times
Rita Farmer knows exactly how hard it is to break into the movie business. Acting was the big dream that brought her out to L.A. in the first place. And while she never made the red carpet, that big dream did turn into a modest profession that kept her and her son afloat. So from time to time she'll lend her talents as a favor.
Kenner and Lance de Sauvenard, heirs to a timber fortune, don't really need a favor to make their art film, but since Lance is dating Rita's sister, Gina, there's no way for Rita to worm her way out of a read-through. Gina is all for the project-or at least her new boyfriend-and she goes with Lance to scout locations on his family's land holdings in the Northwest. When they don't return as planned and flood waters start to rise, Rita can't help dashing into the wilds to bring her sister home, and when foul play becomes more and more likely, her sometime lover, George Rowe, is right on her heels.

Pick up this collection and enjoy some pure reading satisfaction!
