Deceivers

Joanna Barnes

About this book

They move around the globe—from a fogbound town on Cape Cod to the chrome world of Beverly Hills, from crisp winter in New York's Central Park to sun-blasted locations in Spain. But these are not jet-set idlers. These are highly charged, talented men and women whose larger-than-life style is the deception of make believe. The Deceivers: Laura Curtis—At twenty-three, having starred in more pictures than she can remember, Laura attends the funeral of her husband. He was shot to death in their bedroom on the evening of his birthday party. Martin Tabor—A talented man who loves Laura Curtis so much he destroys the central deceit in her life, which is also what made it livable... Lisa Haller—A fine actress, a close friend, an unhappy wife, who shares Laura's husband two months after marriage. Mike Stanton—A former child star, Laura's husband, who needs her as much as she thinks she needs him. They might have lived happily ever after, except for one night when somebody tells the truth.
