What is Murder at the movies about?
Thirteen-year-old Charley is a famous singer, but she is also a brilliant young detective.

With suspects everywhere, including the grumpy director and an unpleasant co-star, Charley and George must follow the clues, uncover the truth and solve the mystery before filming comes to a dangerous end.
