This is a pleasant and enjoyable little film about a children's book author who gets involved in some Hollywood murders and decides to try to solve them. Sort of "Murder, She wrote" with a younger protagonist.
Justine Bateman (Mallory of yore) is very relaxed and does well as this amateur detective.
There are some plot loose ends that never get resolved(for instance, why doesn't her husband Andrew Macarthy call her when he is out of town and who is the mysterious neighbor etc.) but it doesn't matter that much.
The film ends in a way that might suggest that they hope to make more of these stories and I wouldn't mind seeing more of them.
