The Darkest Red

Toby temple is a super star and a super bastard, a man adored by his fans and plagued by suspicion and distrust. Nil Castle came to Hollywood to be a star- and discovered that she had to buy her way with her body.

Four years before, he had been called Patrick S. Lanigan. He had died in a car crash in February 1992. His gravestone lay in a cemetery in Biloxi, Mississippi. He had been a partner at an up and coming law firm, had a pretty wife, a new daughter, and a bright future. Six weeks after his death, $90 million had disappeared from the law firm. It was then that his partners knew he was still alive.

He always travelled to work under an assumed name, though typically it was one he never changed.
