Reeve is a detective novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story follows the protagonist, Craig Kennedy, a scientific detective, as he investigates the sudden and suspicious death of a famous film star, Stella Lamar, during a movie shoot. The narrative is set against the backdrop of the motion picture industry, exploring the complexities of fame, relationships, and the darker side of the glamorous world of film.  At the start of the novel, Kennedy is called to the scene of the tragedy in a luxurious library where Stella has collapsed while filming a scene. District Attorney Mackay vividly recounts the circumstances of her unexpected death, and the atmosphere is filled with grief and chaos as characters grapple with the shocking event. As Kennedy examines the body, he discovers a tiny scratch on her arm, suggesting that her demise may have been caused by foul play rather than a natural cause. The opening segment sets the stage for a tangled web of motives among those in Stella's life, including her estranged husband, her current manager, and various members of the film crew, hinting at a complex investigation filled with intrigue and suspense.
