Silvia Moreno-Garcia returns with The Seventh Veil of Salome, a sumptuous historical epic about a young woman in 1950s Hollywood who wins the role of a lifetime in a film about Salome, the legendary heroine whose story has inspired artists since ancient times.
When the film’s mercurial director casts Vera Larios, an unknown Mexican ingenue, in the lead role, she quickly becomes the talk of the town. She also becomes an object of envy for Nancy Hartley, a bit player whose career has stalled and who will do anything to win the fame she believes she deserves. Two actresses, both determined to make it to the top in Golden Age Hollywood - a city overflowing with gossip, scandal, and intrigue - make for a sizzling combination.
Moreno-Garcia is the author of several novels, including Velvet Was the Night, Mexican Gothic, and Gods of Jade and Shadow.
