May Cobb & 'The Hollywood Assistant': Complicated Conversations Series

Pop Fiction Women

In this episode of Complicated Conversations we welcome May Cobb to discuss her new novel, The Hollywood Assistant, which follows Cassidy Foster, a fledgling novelist who moves to LA and becomes a Hollywood assistant for a power couple where their secrets and lies place her in the crosshairs of a murder investigation. We chat with May about the personal inspiration behind the characters and setting; the smoke and mirrors of the entertainment industry; obsession, forbidden desires, deception, and murder; how she uses astrology for character development (we LOVE this!); and the surreal experience of witnessing the TV adaptation of her prior novel, The Hunting Wives. May is a delight and The Hollywood Assistant is UN-putdownable! Buy it, read it, share it, and listen to our spoiler-free chat wherever you get your podcasts! Learn more about your ad choices.
