This week on #Book Spectrum: star of the silver screen Carroll Baker talks with host Chris Cordani about her new mystery thriller, “Who Killed Big Al?” Known best for starring roles in the classic movies “Baby Doll,” “How the West Was Won,” “The Carpetbaggers” and “Something Wild” among many others, this is Ms. Baker’s fourth book.
During our conversation, we meet the characters who assemble on the fictional Escape Island off the Canadian coast, including the sharp-dressing but rather uncouth Big AL, who winds up dead where everyone has a motive and rather dark secrets. Can you solve the mystery?
We also look back at Carroll’s on-screen career and how she got into writing over the years.
