About This Book

This soap opera is no ordinary drama.

Arrogant but lovable Joshua Rivington III and beautiful but brainy Sidney Scott Webster have set up SSW Enterprises, Computer Consultants (Discretion Guaranteed). When Jane Palmer Kirby, Executive Producer of the soap opera Lust for Life appeals to the two computer sleuths for help, the case looks too hot to pass up. Besides, Jane is Sidney's aunt, and she thinks her job and her show are being sabotaged.

But what begins as a fun case, snooping around a television show's cast and sound stage, soon takes on an ominous tone. Sick practical jokes and "accidents" that just couldn't be accidents haunt the set. The cast of suspects reads like the soap opera's script: a writer who's obsessed with her creations, an actress whose madwoman role may have rubbed off on her, an actor with disturbing secrets in his past. But there's more to this mystery than meets the eye, and it will take the two of them to keep this daytime drama from becoming a living nightmare.
