Not without you, shed said. And Id let her down
Hollywood, 1961: when beautiful, much-loved movie star Eve Noel vanishes at the height of her fame, no-one knows where, much less why.
Fifty years later, another young British actress, Sophie Leigh, lives in Eves house high in the Hollywood Hills. Eve Noel was her inspiration and Sophie, disenchanted with her life in LA, finds herself becoming increasingly obsessed with the mystery of her idol's disappearance. And the more she finds out, the more she realises Eves life is linked with her own.
As Eves tragic past and the present start to collide, Sophie needs to unravel the truth to save them both but is she already too late Becoming increasingly entangled in Eves world, Sophie must decide whose life she is really living . . .
