Joy Fielding: Trance (USA 1976)

From the Publisher:
AT MIDNIGHT THE HOUSE WAS ALIVE WITH THE LAUGHTER AND GLITTER OF HOLLYWOOD'S SWINGINGEST STARS
BY MORNING THE PARTY WAS OVER AND THE STENCH OF SLAUGHTER WAS UNMISTAKABLE

Three completely different women thrown together by circumstance -- and each involved in a ritual murder so bizarre that it could only happen today.

LOUISE
was young and innocent when she arrived in Hollywood hoping to become an actress. Then she married super star Jonathan Fellows and her life was transformed.

DINI
was always on the fringes of success. Her scene was pornographic movies, orgies and blackmail. But more than anything else she wanted desperately to become a star.

BAMBI
was a spoiled, mixed-up kid afraid of love but dangerously involved with a man obsessed by the world of black magic.
