Alone (Thorndike Press Large Print Mystery Series: A Valentino Mystery)

Valentino wants to keep his beloved run-down movie palace, The Oracle, from being condemned before it reopens -- but murder keeps intruding. At a gala held in memory of screen legend Greta Garbo, the host, a hotshot developer, tells Valentino about a letter from Garbo to his late wife. She and Garbo had been . . . close. As a film archivist, Valentino is interested. But the plot thickens when the letter leads him back to find a dead blackmailer and a smoking gun.
