description: Beautiful, talented Ida Lake was known as "The Diva" to her millions of fans when she reigned as Hollywood's black singing sensation of the 1940s. Her career--and her sanity--collapsed after the suspicious deaths of the husband she adored and the daughter she worshiped and, haunted by rumors of "un-American" activities, Ida took refuge abroad. Two decades later, she has been coaxed into a comeback as the star of a new Broadway musical. But tragedy stalks Ida Lake again as a mysterious web of intrigue, sex scandal and murder envelops the show. In DIVA, Stanley Bennett Clay shows that drama wasn't only on stage!
