This Year's Best New Fantasy Books Will Fill Your Days With Magic

A haunted film and an actress's vanishing are at the center of the time-hopping "The Star and the Strange Moon" by Constance Sayers. While filming a horror film in the 1960s, fading actress Gemma vanishes into thin air. What no one seems to realize is that she's been pulled into the film itself, where she fights to survive and escape. Decades later, the film has developed a cult following, with rare screenings where new footage seems to magically appear. In 2007, film student Christopher sets out to discover the truth behind the movie and Gemma's disappearance, only to unravel a dangerous mystery beyond his expectations.
