BOOK SUMMARY

Stop!

You are about to embark on an incredible journey to Hollywood with the dazzling young hypnotist Molly Moon.


But be warned: this trip is very dangerous, evil lurks on every page.


Molly Moon is back -- and this time she's hypnotizing her way to the Academy Awards in Los Angeles. Along with Rocky and Petula the pug, Molly is tracking the sinister activities of American billionaire Primo Cell, who wants to become president and take over the world. He has all the Hollywood celebrities in his power, but Molly Moon has an amazing power of her own, which even she doesn't know about. . .
