Publisher's Synopsis
Rachel Ann Maddon is about to become America's next great movie star. Adored by the camera, loved by her public, beautiful Rachel Ann has it all, including a dark secret from her past that threatens to blow up her promising future when her mentor and lover-a man old enough to be her father-turns up dead. Did he fall or was he pushed? Or did the bullet in him do the job? Either way, a homicide investigation will be deadly publicity for Rachel Ann and her family. Rachel Ann's movie studio switches into high gear to protect her teetering career, but then Neil Brand, the studio's security chief, uncovers a blackmail scheme over illicit sex films that threatens other major motion picture stars. As the heat builds, the rich and powerful scramble to get out from under. That's when the bodies begin to pile up.
