THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED, LAUGH-OUT-LOUD THRID INSTALLMENT OF THE FAN-FAVORITE JUNIOR BENDER MYTERIES There are not many people brave enough to say no to Irwin Dressler, Hollywood'€™s scariest mob boss-turned-movie king. Even though Dressler is ninety-three years old, LA burglar Junior Bender is quaking in his boots when Dressler'€™s henchman haul him in for a meeting. Dressler wants Junior to solve a '€œcrime'€ he believes was committed more than seventy years ago, when an old friend of his, once-famous starlet Dolores La Marr, had her career destroyed after compromising photos were taken of her at a Los Vegas party. Dressler wants justice for Dolores and the shining career she never had. Junior can'€™t help but think the whole thing is a little crazy. After all, it'€™s been seventy years. Even if someone did set Dolores up for a fall from grace back then, they'€™re probably long dead now. But he can't say no to Irwin Dressler (no one can, really). So he starts digging. And what he finds is that some vendettas never die'€”they only get more dangerous.
