Kosto ei ole koskaan ollut suloisempi. Yllätyksellinen ja ovela psykologinen trilleri vangitsee ja häikäisee kuin kulta-ajan Hollywood-filmi.Lila Crayne on koko Amerikan rakastama filmitähti: hän on ystävällinen, säihkyvän upea ja valovoimainen. Hän on käynnistämässä ohjaajamiehensä kanssa uutta elokuvaprojektia, nykyaikaista feminististä sovitusta Fitzgeraldin jazz-ajan merkkiteoksesta Yö on hellä.Valmistautuakseen pääroolinsa haasteisiin Lila päättää työstää menneisyytensä traumaa terapiassa. Hänen täydellisen hallittu elämänsä murenee terapeutin sohvalla – ja tämä kerää sirpaleita. Mutta jokaisella on salaisuutensa, eikä kukaan tai mikään ole sitä miltä näyttää. Kuolettavan kostopelin pyörteissä voi menettää uran, maineen tai jopa hengen.Tähtipölyn taakse tähyävä romaani on kuumeinen, synkän romanttinen tarina uhriudesta, kuuluisuudesta, kulisseista ja kostosta.”Alex Michaelidesin Hiljaisen potilaan kaltaisten trillerien fanit tulevat nauttimaan tästä houkuttelevasta, koukuttavasta tarinasta.” – Booklist

Hevn har aldri smakt bedre! Filmstjernen Lila Crayne er Amerikas yndling – vakker, raus og beundret. Sammen med sin forlovede, den visjonære regissøren Kurt Royall, er hun i ferd med å skape en feministisk nytolkning av Fitzgeralds Tender Is the Night. Men da hun søker hjelp hos den sjarmerende terapeuten Jonah Gabriel, begynner fasaden å slå sprekker. Under overflaten lurer svik, skjulte agendaer og farlige forbindelser. Snart blir det umulig å vite hvem som trekker i trådene – og hvem som vil overleve når spillet er over. En smart og mørk spenningsroman om kjærlighet, makt – og hevnens pris.
