The note discovered beside Rosaleen Wrights hanged body is full of reasons justifying her suicidebut it lacks her trademark vitality and wit and most importantly her signature. So the note alone is far from enough to convince her best friend Jane that Rosaleen took her own life. Instead Jane suspects Rosaleens boss Luther Grandison a man famous for his work for stage and screen. To the world at large hes powerful and charismatic but Rosaleens letters to Jane described a duplicitous greedy man who would no doubt kill to protect his secrets. Intent to uncover evidence against him Jane takes a job as Grandisons secretary; her friend Francis soon joins her in the endeavor gaslighting manipulating and impersonating his way into Grandisons inner circle. But as the duo draw closer to the truth they come nearer still to their own grisly ends tangling with a man whose disregard for human life is matched only by his skillful ability to continually avoid suspicion.
