It began the morning they found her body floating in the ocean just off Catalina Island. She had arrived the evening before aboard the yacht Grandeur, accompanied by her husband, the yacht’s captain, and Jonathan Walton, the costar in her latest film, Cascade. The tabloids claimed she and Jonathan were lovers, but such was the kind of titillating gossip for which Hollywood was famous, so few took these rumors seriously. Natalie hated the water—feared it actually, so it was odd she would have embarked on a sea voyage and stranger still to learn she had drowned. The coroner’s official report listed her demise as death by misadventure. Her family suspected it was murder, so they asked me to investigate. It seemed easy enough, so I agreed to take a look. But then men came in the night to kill me, and I knew this time it was going to be different. This time the people I was being paid to help wanted me dead, and I had no idea why. When an iconic Hollywood actress dies under mysterious circumstances, questions are bound to be asked. But when the people who are best positioned to answer those questions conspire to keep their silence, finding the truth becomes a nearly impossible task. In the most recent addition to the Michael Riley mystery series, Riley must unravel the mystery of a beloved Hollywood icon's untimely death. But the deeper he digs the more he suspects Natalie's death may not have been a tragic accident after all.
