Robert Hillier is shocked when film actress, Tamara Collins, visits his office and tells him that her husband, film director Lewis Lawson, has beaten up Robert’s twenty-year-old son, James. Ever since the suicide of his wife, Jill, Robert has been particularly protective towards James, who is offhand towards him in his manner, and the news that his son has developed an infatuation with the famous actress is deeply worrying. To add to the complications, Tamara claims that her life is under threat and asks Robert himself, for reasons that are unclear, to look into it. Who, if not James, is Tamara’s would-be assassin? What are the two secrets that she talks about and which Robert suspects provide a link with his family? And why, most poignantly of all, did Jill decide to kill herself two years earlier?
