Date: June 1999 In the quaint New Jersey seaside town of Ocean Heights, freelance ghostwriter Anne hardaway is frustrated by her latest assignment: a tell-all autobiography of Mallory Loving, the former local sexpot who has made it big in movies. Even though Mallory's new film is being shot in twon, Anne finds that her high-profile subject is a first-class prima donna. And Anne isn't the only one having a hard time with the ego-driven star. Treating the film's crew, cast, locals and her husband like personal minions, Mallory is a woman whose popularity, like her career, is on the wane. As severaly accidents delay shooting, a series of threatening letters from a deranged fan unsettle the star's fragile nerves.

Using the biography as her calling card, Anne begins an investigation into Mallory's murder to determine which suspect is only "acting" innocent.
