Theater of Seduction

In the theater of seduction, vengeance can last for centuries.

Crippling panic attacks drove Catherine Brighton from her theatrical career, but when enigmatic director Phillip Lewis casts her in his troupe, she knows it's her ticket to Broadway. Catherine quickly discovers that the company isn't what it seems. Phillip has a strange hold over the cast, and the lines between reality and the play blur into a dangerous emotional minefield…one that's cost previous leading ladies their lives.

The danger is compounded when Catherine falls in love with one of the male leads, Dominic LeClair, who is torn between his love for Cat and the secrets pressing in around them. As the tragedy unfolds on the stage, Catherine discovers that the plot extends well beyond the script, and empathy can be used for much more than wowing an audience. If she can't find a way to free them all, they'll be trapped in the theater of seduction forever.
