When her ties to a grisly Hollywood suicide skyrocket her to fame, struggling actress Polly learns just how far she'll go to stay in the limelight - even if her dreams of stardom come with a body count.

The story begins when a young woman discovers a murder plot, and calls 911. But seconds into the call, she's attacked and abducted. The police investigation into the woman's disappearance leads them to interrogate the cast and crew of a play called 'The Russian Doll.'

Erratic messages from her dad sends Jo deep into the California desert to sort through the remains of a frenzied, paranoid manic episode. However, along the way she makes two discoveries: her family can no longer support him, and the trunk of his car is filled with hundreds of slippers.

New names, new jobs, new lives, new husbands...? Two total strangers entering a witness protection program must pretend to be happily married to hide their identities from the dangerous people who want them dead. Franklin is an even-tempered English professor who prides himself on his attention to detail in every area of his carefully structured life. Owen is a messy, street-smart dropout with anger issues, forced into a life of crime against his will. About the only thing Franklin and Owen have in common is that they're gay. Now, living together in a very small house as Mr. and Mr. Fulton, they find they have something else in common: they can't stand each other. But both men have complicated pasts, with some very bad people relentlessly hunting them down. With their lives on the line, Owen and Franklin are stuck with each other--for better or for worse.
