    About this ebook

    Jack Dwyers, ex-cop turned amateur actor, is delighted when his agent lands him a role in a local production of Long Day's Journey Into

    Night. The real drama starts, however, when Michael Reeves -- the play's angry, bullying director -- is found murdered, and Dwyer's friend

    Stephen Wade -- a sweet has-been of an actor -- is charged with the crime. Dwyer knows that Wade has been set up. But who did it? And why?

    Was it David Ashton, an apparent fortune-seeker and heir to the Bridges Theater by marriage; or Richard Keech, the handsome, pushy young

    actor who shared the woman whom the dead man loved? Or could it have been Anne Stewart -- the aging actress who carries a secret as dark as

    that of the character she plays? And what of Lenora Bridges -- the matriarch of the theatrical family, who never comes out of her room in the building high above the stage?

    Sure, all the world's a stage but, for Dwyer, it's not that simple because a real man's life is on the line. In order to save him, Dwyer's going to have to discover what's really going on behind the scenes at the most bizarre, mysterious, complex theater company west of Times Square.

      A Lifetime Of Pin-ups
