Liza Kelly, sudoku maven with the Oregon Daily, settled down in Maiden's Bay to escape the Hollywood career that brought stress into her life-and her marriage. Unfortunately, the producers of Counterfeit have selected the town as the perfect location for their new film starring up-and-coming starlet Jenny Robbins-and they've brought in Liza's ex-husband, Michael, to work on the script.
Taking on the role of Jenny's publicist puts Liza in the center of the action, where inflated egos and artistic temperaments clash both on set and off. But when one of the film's major players is found buried up to the neck in sand on the Oregon shore, drowned by the incoming tide, liza finds herself investigating the cast and crew to determine who wrote this death scene.
