Both the skeleton and the corpse have died with suspicious convenience for Georgia Wells, a monstrous but charming actress with a raffish entourage - vain, stupid and selfish, she attracts men like moths to a flame.

And in order to protect Valentine, Campion must unravel a story of blackmail and ruthless murder
