From Janet Leigh, one of Hollywood's most glamorous insiders, comes a novel about the power of secrets in a town built on illusions.

It was a time when Hollywood studios were at their most powerful, when stars were discovered and crafted into national idols and the motion picture dream factory was in full swing. And at the center of it all was one woman -- a woman who knew all the secrets.

Eve Handel had always been encouraged to follow her dreams -- dreams that took her to Hollywood. Hired by Utopia Studios to find talented actors and build them into stars, Eve quickly became one of the most powerful women in an industry run by men. And as she influenced the careers of the studio's stars, Hollywood's elite freely unloaded their secrets -- and scandals -- on Eve.

Now after a sudden illness, Eve lies in a hospital bed. As her life hangs in the balance those closest to her are torn between their concern for Eve and concern for their own reputations. Because Eve Handel kept a journal -- a journal containing truths that could jeopardize careers and ruin lives.
