I did this for my last book, Blackstone, listed some of the random tidbits I had to research during the editing process. Flashback is no different, so here’s another list. Some of these subjects are vital to the plot, while others are throwaway lines.
1 – Various types of surgical saws
2 – Which year Steamboat Willie premiered (1928)
3 – The history of the Hollywood blacklist
4 – Primate rescue sanctuaries in California
5 – The steps involved with creating a waxwork figure
6 – Which celebrities are buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery
7 – Fonda Theatre through the decades
8 – Sci-fi schlock films on IMDB
9 – Amenities at Griffith Observatory
10 – British Inspector in charge of the Jack the Ripper case
