Then, late home one evening from a night shoot, Amanda puts the key in her front door for the very last time.  The next morning, the press gathers once again outside her house, this time to report on a brutal murder.  Amanda's body has been found inside, stabbed many times, only her beautiful face left unharmed. DI Anna Travis is desperate for a break after a long, hard-fought case.  But the call comes through, summoning her to the scene of the Delaney murder.  Anna is shocked by what she finds, and even more so when she discovers the truth behind the public image of this glamorous and successful actress. Anna and the team grapple to track down Amanda's killer, headed by the ever demanding DCI James Langton.  But Anna has challenges of her own to overcome too. Promotion to Chief Inspector is within her grasp.  But when the time comes for her to stand before the board, she faces an adversary from the least likely quarter...
