Murder, movie stars, and mystery await those who climb aboard this
cross-country train, inspired by the real-life history of the
Hollywood Victory Caravan Hollywood, 1942. Jacqueline Love's acting
career is flailing. Suddenly on the wrong side of 40, parts are drying
up, directors are calling her "difficult," and Humphrey Bogart has
definitely stopped taking her calls. Desperate to cling to stardom,
Jackie takes the only gig that will have her: the Hollywood Victory
Caravan, a train full of movie stars crossing the country to fundraise
for the war effort. Jackie wouldn't call herself patriotic, but with
her life's work on the line, she'll do anything. When a fellow star
dies on board, everyone assumes the death was a tragic accident–but
Jackie isn't so sure. Stuck in Chicago's Union Station, Jackie enlists
the help of Grace, one of the few women in the police force, to
investigate. But "difficult" outside of a movie set is dangerous, and
when the pair fall into a homegrown Nazi scheme, Jackie must ask
herself what's more important: her career, or her country?
