After her boyfriend's twin brother and an unidentified woman are found dead in Hollywood, Nora Kemp and Hugh Iverson fight for their reputations and to uncover the real killer, not satisfied with the initial findings of a murder-suicide.

Actress Nora Kemp loves two men. One is Hugh Iverson, a philanthropic movie star who gives Nora security and respectability. The other is Hugh’s twin brother, Trent, a Hollywood bad boy who brings out Nora’s wild side. When Trent and an unidentified woman are found dead on the Iversons’ Beverly Hills property, more than Nora’s and Hugh’s reputations are at stake. An investigation suggests murder-suicide. But there’s more to the crime than first meets the eye: suspicions of a serial killer with a bizarre motive, Hugh’s unnerved and cautious staff, and a missing mother and son. As two LA detectives sift through the deceptions of the innocent and the guilty—some living and some dead—solving the case becomes a cunning cat-and-mouse game. Because in a city of illusions, the truth—no matter how dangerous—is so easy to hide.
