based on the novel by Sebastian Stuart

Twenty years ago, Charles Davis's first novel made him a literary legend.  But his recent work has not lived up to its power or popularity.  When his latest novel is savaged by reviewers, Charles is paralyzed by self-doubt--until fate hands him an unexpected muse.

Emma Barnes, a student in his writing class, is all a teacher could hope for: she's bright, ambitious and extraordinarily gifted.  As Charles's wife grows impatient with her husband's petulant moods and turns her focus to the elegant boutique she is about to open, Charles forms an intimate bond with his brilliant young protégée. Setting aside his own work, he devotes himself to helping her finish and publish her first novel.

But who is really helping whom?  At the end of this tale of deception, betrayal, and murder, the questions are even more pointed.

Who is the predator?  And who is they prey?
