Synopsis
It's been over a decade since Professor E. Pendleton published his brilliant short story debut, and his hopes for a dazzling literary career now lie in tatters. His simmering despair boils over with the arrival on his university campus of Pendleton's one-time friend, now nemesis, the bestselling author and king of the coffee-table book, Allen Horowitz. For Pendleton, death seems to be the only remaining option, but his attempt to kill himself is wrecked by the intervention of Adi Wiltshire, a graduate student battling her own demons of failure and thwarted ambition. While Pendleton recovers from his suicide attempt, Adi discovers a novel hidden in his basement: a brilliant, bitter story with a gruesome murder at its core. The novel's publication causes a storm of publicity, into which Adi and Horowitz are drawn - along with the sister of a young girl whose real-life, unsolved murder bears an uncanny resemblance to the crime in Pendleton's novel, and a burnt-out cop determined to prove that in this case fact and fiction are one and the same.
