Shadow Games

When Ed Gorman's first novel appeared nine years ago, The Library Journal noted that Rough Cut "has great strength in the cynical, sardonic, witty voice of the narrator. An auspicious debut."

Eight suspense novels later, Gorman has more than fulfilled that early promise, and no more so than in this novel about the phenomenon of child TV stars... a novel just as "cynical, sardonic and witty" as his first.

Cobey Daniels has it all. He's rich, he's young and he's the hottest star in the country.

But then there is the messy business with 14-year-old Kimberly Conners...and life begins to change for Cobey.

Only Puckett, the investigator hired by Cobey's manager, is able to make sense out of Cobey's dazzling but very dark rise in the world of big-time show business.

And what Puckett learns is not only shocking but very dangerous as well...

This is the first American edition of a novel The London Sunday Times called "darkly mesmeric" and The Bolton Evening News said was "A heart-stopping thriller packed with dark suspense. A real chiller."
