Plot

Not even five and a half decades of self-imposed exile on a rocky island off the coast of Maine can erase Tasheba Kent's fame. Her smoldering sexuality on the silver screen is as potent a symbol of movie glamour today as it was in her silent-film heyday. The love-hate rivalry she shared with her sister Lilith Brayne - a leading lady whose image was as wholesome as Tasheba's was otherwise - is the stuff of Hollywood legend. But what truly makes Tasheba Kent immortal is the way that sibling rivalry ended - with a very public battle for the love of Lilith's husband, handsome leading man Cavender Marsh. One night in 1938, Lilith fell from her terrace down a rocky cliff into the sea. Under suspicion but never formally charged, Cavender Marsh headed for Maine. Amid all the rhinestone-studded trappings of long-ago glamour, a killer stalks the island. And when death strikes, with a storm raging and power and communication out, Gregor must search the darkness - and Tasheba's past - to find and stop the murderer... or none of them will celebrate their next birthday.
