商品簡介
A Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist fallen from grace, Hardwick ends up in the Hollywood paparazzi pack, surviving from get to get, a half-step ahead of the loan sharks, as he tries to escape a world he loathes. Then Bonnie Quinn, the star of TV's Thanks for Sharing disappears just before taping the show's 100th episode - the trigger episode for syndication - after which the show can be sold for millions. The show's producer, who loathes Hardwick, persuades him to track Bonnie down - as he did once before - and Hardwick realizes his worst enemy just might be his ticket out of the paparazzi sewer.
And almost as soon as Hardwick begins his search, he crosses paths with Meddy, a respected network journalist, whose disdain for what her ex-fiance has become is still clear. But a suspicious death leads Hardwick to re-team with his old love on a dangerous and violent quest from the closed sound stages and the back alleys of the Hollywood dream, to the highest levels of network television. Haunted by his past, Hardwick grapples with his curious attachment to Quinn, as well as his feelings for Meddy, and his hope for redemption, as he tries to expose the greatest reality show ever: the shocking truth behind the trigger episode.
