Secret Window meets Deep Water in this "irresistible domestic drama" (Booklist, Utah) from the award-winning author of No Good Lie and the Detective Temeke Crime Series, in which a woman's death reveals the perilous sacrifices an actor makes-and the secrets he keeps-in the pursuit of fame. If all the world's a stage, who can you really trust?Celebrity actor Zane Osborne plays London's renowned plastic surgeon and secret serial killer, Ethan Holloway, in the hit series Play Him, Play Her.

Zane's wife Lilja, former chef and 39-year-old mother, simply wants to live out her dream of starting a restaurant. None of the perks of fame make up for Zane treating her coldly, drinking too much, and neglecting his family.

When Lilja discovers Zane is having an affair with his assistant Nic, the polished facade of their life splits wide open. Zane's process of method acting has often resulted in the entanglement of his life with Holloway's, and as the lines between reality and script blur beyond recognition, Zane loses sight of not only who he is, but what he has done.
