Mystery-thriller author Thomas B. Sawyer just can’t seem to keep a leash on his Manhattan P.I., Barney Moon. In this latest, hilarious installment of the Moon Series, A MAJOR PRODUCTION!, Moon finds himself back in Los Angeles and forced to take another whack at the whackos in one breakneck case of WEBIT? after another–Where Else But in Tinseltown? This is classic Sawyer suspense, dialogue, humor, and cinematic prose. With A MAJOR PRODUCTION!, Sawyer takes his rightful place among the master-of-suspense giants. –Andrew McAleer, author of the 101 Habits of Highly Successful Novelists and co-editor of Coast to Coast: Private Eyes from Sea to Shining Sea

Manhattan P.I. Barney Moon doesn’t drive, and is stuck once again on the to-him alien planet known as Los Angeles. To Barney’s relief, it’s only one or two nights in Nutsville, a total no-brainer quickie. A simple fraud matter. Except - wouldn'tcha know? Barney quickly finds himself in the middle of several serious, whacko, very dangerous cases of WEBIT? (Where Else But In Tinseltown?).

In A MAJOR PRODUCTION!, New York Private-eye Barney Moon’s latest reluctant-but-thankfully-very brief journey to his least-favorite city in the World quickly becomes complicated - and terrifyingly, uniquely extended. For starters, there’s the pair of massively, desperately bored Homeland Security Agents who see a way out via Hollywood Success (almost their only areas of agreement), plus a crooked talent agent, an obsessed/ambitious ADA, an ineptly-planned, fake-terrorist plot - based on a stolen screenplay - to attack Los Angeles, harried LAPD Homicide Detectives, their already overflowing plates made maddeningly worse by Barney’s latest intrusion(s) onto their turf - until he unexpectedly and weirdly makes them look like heroes, the murder on Sunset Boulevard of a mob boss’s actress-wife, wannabes with outsized Movieland Dreams - and for Barney, a ticking clock - its deadline: his life.

With smart, gorgeous Melodie Seaver at the wheel - and on his case - Barney Moon, with his customary wit, tenacity, ingenuity, and hilarious attitudes about-and-reactions-to LA, manages to clean up all of it - in ways not possible or even thinkable anywhere else - barely in time to rescue himself from execution by the mob - before making his narrow escape back to Civilization (aka New York City).

Well-l-l, almost…
