The Actor
The Actor
To achieve greatness, you must sacrifice everything. An unputdownably tense novel about obsession, guilt, and the glamour of Hollywood.
At long last, Adam Sealey has an Oscar within reach. Working with his controversial former mentor, Jonathan, he's given the performance of a lifetime, and he almost believes it might be worth the cost.
Because Adam subscribes to the method. It's the secret that the world's greatest actors swear byβdigging into their darkest, most personal traumas to bring a role to life. And Adam's greatest trauma is worse than most. Back in drama school, he had to choose between a girl he loved and the success he craved. What he did that night is his darkest secret.
And then he gets a messageβsomeone knows. And if they tell, everything Adam's worked for will come crashing down.
