Publisher's Synopsis

Following the death of Carmen Flores, the Mexican star, her Hollywood home was bought by Adela Cork, the star of the silent films. Mrs Cork's impecunious brother-in-law, Smedley, thought that among the late Carmen's personal effects might well be her diary which recorded her chequered love life.
