About this ebook

Actor Harry Anders’ movie career is in full swing. His fans are legion, and his talent attracts first-rate directors and producers. With an Oscar nomination and a Golden Globe under his belt, it seems he can do no wrong.

He also has a more than satisfying personal life. He marries Alec Walker -- the love of his life -- and romances his agent, Jake Navarro, on the side. Branching out, Harry turns to TV and nabs an iconic role in a hit detective series destined to run for years. The gods are indeed good to him.

But gods can be fickle. Without warning, the network cancels his series. Leading roles become scarce, and Harry’s marriage crumbles under the pressure. In desperation, he agrees to a plan of lies, deceit, and double-crosses that ultimately leads to murder. How far will Harry go for a good man’s love?

    Act 1: The Set Up

    It all started a few weeks back, but let’s flash-forward to the morning Jake stopped by the apartment to drop off my obituary. The piece was scheduled to appear a few days later in The Globe.

    I was in the shower.

    He stuck his head around the corner of the tub, pulled back the curtain, and running his eyes appraisingly up and down my body, gave out a low whistle.

    I leaned over and kissed him.

    He moved closer but I pushed him away, saying one of my favorite lines from a dreary romantic comedy that had made tons of dough for the studio. Let’s not start something we know we can’t finish.

    He acted deeply hurt by my rejection, put a hand over his heart, and slinked out of the bathroom, but not before I glimpsed a lopsided smile in the mirror.

    It’s on the table, he yelled out.

    I turned off the water and was toweling myself off when I heard a muffled sound of a door lock clicking shut. I grabbed my robe and ran into the dining room, making wet footmarks on the hardwood floor.

    I sat down and picked up the draft. Not everyone gets to see his obit a few days before it goes to print.
