Description
When a glamorous Hollywood starlet becomes the target of a blackmailer armed with compromising photographs, Travis McGee is hired to uncover the source of the threat—and keep the scandal from destroying her career. Accompanied by the starlet’s sharp and complex assistant, McGee follows a trail of suspects from Florida to the glittering, morally ambiguous world of show business. Combining fast-paced intrigue, jet-setting adventure, and the series’ trademark reflections on loyalty, desire, and the passage of time, the novel offers a provocative portrait of fame and exploitation. MacDonald’s lean, atmospheric prose and psychologically perceptive characters drive the investigation toward a tense and unexpected conclusion.
