The Menacing Movie
By Erle Stanley Gardner

Aspiring actress Stephane Olger just wants to be in pictures, but she may end up in mugshots instead when she gets caught up in a crime. Shortly after quitting her job and moving to Hollywood, she is picked up by a well-dressed man while hitchhiking. The man loses control of the car, and they end up in a horrible accident. Both Stephane and the driver escape unscathed, but the strange man flees the scene, leaving Stephane to face a charge of manslaughter.

Stephane's rich uncle hires Perry Mason to defend her, and he, along with private detective Paul Drake, immediately starts gathering evidence. It turns out that the car was stolen and belongs to a Hollywood producer who has been in contact with the mysterious man, who hails from San Francisco. A woman was promised a job by the man but ends up being offered one by Perry Mason instead. She disappears, and in another room of the hotel, her luggage is found with a man who has been shot.

In the courtroom, Perry Mason uncovers many facts, but the case becomes even more complicated when the film producer’s chauffeur is murdered. Now it’s up to Perry Mason to uncover the truth behind the suspicious scenario starring a menacing movie.
